Bold to enter the fray with no experience.

one can akways try to learn, who knows how many cats i will have in future.

That’s not even a word, but your boldness has been discussed.

ah the famous, lets fight on grammar instead of actual argument, you must be a internet veteran /s

(but seriously, dropping hyphens is somewhat accepatble now, and "at least" ~= "atleast". I don't use any spell check)

Nope. It’s like trimming your own nails vs removing part of each finger.

I have replied to others too, but no i dont think comparison to human nails is not very accurate, our nails are much thinner, and farther from bones, cat claws are more deep seated and wrapped around bones ( i also shared a link regarding this). To me, trimming nails seems more like scratching/chaffed on your digits (as in getting wounded, but not in a threatening manner).

I would request you to read my comments, the comparison to declawing was for trauma, rest of my discussion is about impacts of trimming (should it be done naturally/gradually, or discreetly trimming them) Most of the chain is about should we or should we not, not about why should we.

thank you for your services, I have huge respects.

Another thing I would like to ask you since you are experienced. Would one the reasons for you / your teams to trim nails be to prevent cats from hurting each other? since cats are terretorial, and you guys must have many of them, and likely not enough land for all of them, so they must "not get along". If so, possibly trimming in your case is much more acceptable, it is preventing othets from being harmed. But should this be also applicable to some pet adopter, who likely does not have many cats. Even most indoor cats do make "trips" (read prey) outside, and the this trimming is making them less effective. 1 part of my argument is that for not trimming.
