I have known that "free-range" was a marketing gimmick that was created to help assuage the guilt of people living in an alienating society to differentiate food brands. It has nothing to do with any actual animal husbandry practices which are nearly identical amongst all the worlds abattoirs.
It's good that people are aware of where their food comes from. It's an emotional mile-stone that children must overcome to be well adjusted individuals.
