Ehhhhh. I disagree with this personally, since firstly, if this happened, literally only staffies, janitors, and the chaplain would remain as civilian roles, making the HoP even less important, and botany doesnt always do catering either, so this is grouping them with something they wont necessarily help at all with.
It's also adding more roles than science has to what will effectively only ever have at most 2 people, and need the support of botany to even function properly. I dont think adding even more complexity and necessary cooperation to the already complex and cooperating station is a good change, especially at this size. While its neat on paper, it would be dead weight in practice, I feel.
We dont need an entire department to give spacemen who dont even need it food and drinks. Barman and chef are good as is, because they've got no responsibilities, on 2 at least, and are an entry point job for more complicated things, barman especially, and should stay as such.
This may be my hottest take yet, but that's my take, I guess.
