Dunno. What I can say is that it’s not no concern. https://edition.cnn.com/2025/05/15/health/arsenic-cadmium-rice-wellness
Add the methane production and use of water to the equation and beans or pulses in general look quite a bit better in terms of environmental or individual health.
And last but not least rice contains very little protein whereas pulses are rich in protein.
But because pulses typically are low on some protein like methionine and cysteine, grain is a indeed a good addition to a diet based on pulses.
Yet I’d pick oats over rice for that part.
