Seconded on “confirmation of what we believe”—science has proved some folk wisdom credible, but some of it nonsense. That is why it is good to test “common knowledge”.

I know that some animals can feel, but not to which degree and if all of them can. Bugs and fish being certified to have feelings on par with or even more… extreme? in-depth? not sure what word to use—would be news to me.

This community is probably weighted towards people with high empathy for non-human creatures, people who might be more likely to seek out information about the emotional capabilities of such creatures. This is not a bad thing, but it would explain how people do not seem to know what you seem to deem obvious.
