A bit of a nitpick, but “reasonable assumptions” may not be reasonable to others, so what’s considered reasonable is really personal. You could say assumptions close to what you think are representative of EAs.
Personally, I found your assumptions about tradeoffs between chickens and humans reasonable, but I also don’t find that death in itself (or the loss of pleasure to the individual because of it) is bad. Others might have opposite intuitions.
