The premise of the studies isn't to actually study cows. The premise of the study is to justify getting rid of them. That's in the "How about no?" school of compromise.

But what they're actually doing now - just studying them - isn't crazy. You might believe that in the future progressives will try to adopt the udderly ridiculous notion of getting rid of cows (which would never happen), but that's not a legitimate argument to claim that the current activity is ridiculous. It's an efficient and valuable step towards the goal of trying to address climate change.
