A more precise summary: Eating meat can be a tool to bring you
closer to G-d, as it is a shadow of qorbanos. Based on the
origin of chulin being at kenisas EY.

It depends if one refocuses desire, al pi the Alshich, through
our shemiras hilkho kashrus, oneg Shabbos and simchas YT.

BTW, after reading the article I'm not sure how R' Tzadoq justifies
eating meat in chu"l.

Tir'u baTov!
