ROFL.

Vegetable matter can be hard to digest...... My sheep chew cud as do cattle. The matter comes back into mouth for chewing to breakdown the cellulose and fiber. If the stomach acid could cope with that these animals would not have a 4 part stomach system. The long fibers cannot get thru the seive section to get to the true stomach, the part that matches our stomach.

We are not designed to digest cellulose and lignan, it passes thru without much change. So no meaningful digestion at all. No nutrients we can absorb. Any digestion would be from the microbes, which we can then absorb.

We are not rabbits with a big cecum, nor a ruminant. We need cooked veg to aid in digestion as raw is not as digestible as we don't tend to chew and chew and chew and chew.

No, I don't see how vegetables are easier to digest than meats.
