It doesn’t really need to be as good as a steak. If you can get it good enough to be used as an ingredient, like as ground beef, for stewing, or steak tips, then that’s a huge part of all beef production.

And they are analogous such as with whole chicken breast in chicken parmigiana and shredded chicken in chicken salad. Beef was just a concrete example.
