Yeah it's incredibly hard to actually burn off calories as opposed to not eating them in the first place

Yes and no. Active calorie consumption is generally much, much lower than people expect, but the simple act of maintaining regular physical activity has a very significant impact on BMR. That said, if weight loss is your gain, a significant increase in caloric consumption needs to be met with a slightly less significant increase in caloric intake, since too much of a deficit causes BMR to drop.

Considering I don't cook, your assumptions are inherently incorrect.

I brew and it's very physically demanding for 11 hours, akin to vigorous weightlifting in a sweat lodge.

No it's not. It is absolutely physically demanding, but 12 hours of "vigorous weightlifting" would be extremely dangerous and almost certainly result in a serious injury well before the end of the day. What you're describing is a demanding manual labour job, which is certainly enough to increase your BMR by about as much as physical activity can and will burn quite a few active calories, but you're not burning 2500 active calories.

Still wrong. I couldn't and didn't use a pallet jack.

If you need to move 5000+ pounds within a day on a regular basis, not being able to use a pallet jack or similar device to facilitate that is a grossly negligent engineering failure.
