I think both show a fundamental lack of empathy for any living thing other than humans.

So essentially no worse than the factory farms of today, you admit. Except, this one actually saves lives.

Factory farms are also an aberration and a crime against sentient beings. This just adds a dollop more "cruel and unusual" and it's not saving lives it's torturing and sacrificing one feeling, thinking, and intelligent life so a human can live another 5 years.
