I don't know if that analogy fully works. Bees get safety, they get a maintained home, as a colony they get healthcare from pests and similar, they get security when things get rough

Yes, they do more work, but the beekeeper also cares for them, and ensures their survival to a greater degree

Not to mention, they're not caged, they're free to leave

Yeah, if bees are stressed by their hive location, they move. Bees will just leave honey farms if they have some sort of detrimental effect that out weights the benefits of the hive location.
