In case you've ever wondered what these were for

I have these on a lot of my pants. They're accessory loops for clipping gear onto with a carabiner. Helmets, gloves, climbing anchors, lights, etc. Stuff that doesn't fit in a pocket but is used too frequently to keep stored in a pack.
If they've entered the fashion world, I assume they're just to give off the vibe that you're an adventurer. Outdoor adventuring has certainly become trendy last few years. Kind of replaced everyone wearing fitness clothes for no particular reason.

Tel that to the cows walking around with one horn.
They get to keep one?

The left ones contain deadly poison.

Ah, I can see that.
Mine are usually a similar L-loop, standard C-loop, or flat nylon ribbon loops for having many clip points in a strip. But not exactly what's In this pic. Usually they're a bit higher to the waist or near the knee. The higher quality ones have the same synthetic guarding to stop wear from rubbing.
And when they're loaded, belt eyelets are next!

They're called Hammer Pants, famously named after MC Hammer. He had a whole line of utility pants: hammers, parachutes.

That makes a lot of sense.

Now I'm gonna feel like a heel when I drink from mine or trumpet with it (it has a screw-off tip/mouthpiece).
Although I guess I was already a heel because I assumed it was "aftermarket" (from cattle killed for beef) and I also eat beef.

Dehorning like you talk about is done when the animals are basically infants. The horns you get at renfest are likely byproducts of the beef industry.
As a side note, dehorning is often for safety purposes. Horns can grow wrong and grow into the animal's head, or they can seriously injure other animals with them. Cutting the horns after they grow is a lot more of a dangerous procedure (for goats at least). Kinda like tonsils or wisdom teeth.
My mom used to have a goat dairy and we had to dehorn the babies. Honestly, the babies were more upset about being separated from mom for 5 minutes than they were getting dehorned. After they rejoined mom, they didn't even act like their head bothered them. But, these are animals who smash their heads into things for fun.
