i would just add "only suitable for animals" does not include cows, sheep, goats and horses.
the reason being that the PUFAs (polyunsaturated fatty acids) contaminate and taint the fats in the animal and this is another related issue that has come up a lot in the last 20 years since feeding grains to ruminants has been on the rise.
it's not just the proteins in the seeds that is a problem, but they are the more visible problem because they trigger the immune system to react, as it reacts to proteins and peptides. the oils also cause problems with the liver. seed oils are also toxic to humans. these kinds of oils are not present in any kind of plant that can have oil extracted without heat or solvents, ie coconut and olive.
the human diet did not have any of these things in them in any great quantity until the inception of industrial extraction of plant especially seed oils. our liver does not tolerate them well and their effect on all fat-using organs is harmful. this only increases the damage of other causes as well. soy protein, in particular, was never consumed outside of the context of being boiled or fermented as in miso and tofu until chemical processing of food became common. there is no such thing as a plant protein that the human body is adapted to.
i hear sometimes people who have been steeped in or surrounded by people steeped in the propaganda of veganism, who think that plant proteins are ok.
plant. proteins. are. not. ok.
not for us, and not for our food (ruminants). and this extends also to other kinds of meats as well, farmed fish are often fed on this poison and the flesh of these animals carries that into our body as well.
i can see it in my cat's reaction to a lot of things sold to feed to cats. many cat food products include soy protein, or even have straight up textured vegetable protein in them. i have witnessed it with several cats, they don't like soy, at all, at all. they often will respond by only licking off the gravy, which is the only part of the product that is actually made from animals.
oh, and you shouldn't be feeding seeds to fowl either, chickens, ducks or turkey. all of these birds main diet is based on insects, worms and soft green leaves. it poisons their eggs as well as their flesh. you can even smell it is different.
yes there is some exceptions. pigeons are seed eaters. i think also quails.
if the animal eats seeds, in the wild, then ok, you can feed them seeds, but otherwise, you are going to see the meat (and eggs) produced by the animal are toxic to humans.
This may be why I don't like quail eggs

I haven't researched so deep, but it certainly makes sense that grains are not good full stop.
I was vegan/vegetarian for a few years and it was not good for my health. Overweight, inflamed , low energy, not feeling great - I didn't get flu or colds though.
