And you're forgetting about the sugar. Let's take making 8.. That takes 8 sugar and 16 wheat for cram. Takes 4-6 wheat and 1 coal for steak. And, honestly, you don't need to mine at all. Just kill someone. Or trade for it. Or.. go exploring and find a structure. Or just go walking around and mine coal when you find it.. People who highly dislike mining something easily visible on the walls are quite rare.. Rarer than people who dislike farming. You also need to use up durability to kill the animal, unless you're willing to punch them all to death. You can hire farmers to farm the wheat for you at low cost, and you dont even need a tool for sugarcane.
