Suppose you had a Star Trek replicator that had some extra obvious features, like being able to interpolate between any existing items (e.g. "halfway between a strawberry and a blueberry").

I would order all the dishes that I no longer eat because animals have to die for them. Replicated would be morally okay with me

Fish. I have yet to have good plant-based fish. Oooh, I could have normal sushi again.

But how does the replicator work? Does it spawn a universe where your cow grows up and is slaughtered and cooked into a burger?

Would that result in a greater cow-to-burger ratio than real life?

From my understanding, it works like a 3D Printer. So no Animal must die!
