Meanwhile I’ve had more than one occasion where somebody confuses shrimp for chicken and I end up with an allergic reaction for three weeks.

I’m not talking about those health and wellness posers with “gluten intolerance”, I’m talking “f-ck up your weekend”, “pissing out your ass”, “stabbed in the abdomen from the inside-out” celiac.
My uncle has it and so did my ex-wife.
My girlfriend has a shellfish allergy and carries an EpiPen. She’s also able to have food that’s been in the same fryer as shrimp, cross-contamination isn’t a worry there like it is for a real celiac. The only thing an EpiPen does for a celiac is weigh down their purse. It isn’t a competition; both suck ass, but it is way easier to get glutened by accident, and there’s nothing you can do to mitigate it when it does happen.
