Counterpoint: I actually want a meatless meat alternative that is a 1:1 replacement. I'd go vegan tomorrow if it didn't mean giving up bacon cheeseburgers. To be sure, having good options that are their own thing is fine and a noble goal. But sometimes, I just want a damn cheeseburger.

I have found a mushroom that has the texture of steak. I do not like mushrooms. This one is mild, chewy, has the right mouthfeel, tastes great as taco/burrito/pasta sauce. Dried, reconstituted in the pan, chopped. Will edit later when I remember which one, a fan shape. You can mash mix it with beans, tofu, or just less meat and some nuts. More nutritious than meat. Also found that certain nut and rice cheeses are actually pretty tasty. It takes some experimentation... which also makes the dogs happy!
