I'm pretty aware that one can get everything one needs eating plants (plus artificially getting B12 only pretty much), but doing so involves eating a lot of plants I don't enjoy eating.
Plus there is a lot of research that shows that proteins, iron and the like, while all available from plants are harder to process and make use of unless you strike the right combination. Not to mention controversity about someof the substitutes like soy being pretty dangerous.

No, I think you just have left your two bullets there, because you've not really looked into the matter. I've lived in a community with only vegetarians and I can tell you that these type of statements stupify me. People have been vegetarian in India for thousands of years.
Also, there is no such research. Perhaps an article or two by some American magazine.
