Collagen - Not Complete Protein, But Label & Cronometer Count it as Such

I'm confused - I know that collagen powders are not complete proteins - so how is it that their labels and Cronometer count them as protein??

    I'm with you on this... Except I don't believe product labels can apply collagen peptides towards daily protein (look at the label). The only party doing this wrong is Cronometer, as far as I've seen.
    Cronometer counting collagen peptides as daily protein is completely ruining 1/3 of it's Macro tracking. I have a range that I like to target for daily protein, but I don't see any harm in completely overshooting my collagen goals. Having these combined, it looks like I'm consuming a crazy amount of protein.. it's become a worthless metric, unless I don't add collagen to my diary.
    CRONOMETER, PLEASE FIX THIS!
