If you have doubts about the $11 number, which is reasonable as it contains quite a lot of guesswork, you might say want to give more to increase the chances you're giving at least enough to make a vegetarian year.

Why should "giving at least enough to make a vegetarian year" be the goal?

Because we're comparing to maybe going vegetarian yourself. Yes, it might be that both are silly, but this post is just arguing that one dominates the other.
