Because earlier you were talking about a day when we wouldnt kill animals. Which is why I said humans will never stop eating meat or hunting.

Trying to pick apart each thing I say makes it sound like you have nothing important to say. Just like when I used the word instant. You knew exactly what I was saying yet you harped on it for the literal meaning. Its bizzare and weakens your actual argument

Socially the acceptability of killing and eating animals is likely to change, even within our lifetimes. That's what I was conveying. People will still eat those things and still hunt. If it's fewer then awesome! Things are trending year over year to more vegetarian lifestyles. Openly discussing becoming vegetarian/vegan helps this progression.

Instant death is an immediate end of consciousness and ability to feel pain, fear, suffering, etc. I find the distinction important. However, I also deal with (unfortunately) dying or dead animals in my work. Quick and instant make a world of difference. Quick does beat slaughterhouses. It's just also not an instant death. Deal with enough animals suffering and you may find this distinction important as well.
