Default Livestock animals don't "get something" out of any "deal"

There is no "deal" struck with livestock animals. "Getting to
experience life" is not some kind of compensation for the fact that
they're slaughtered. "Getting to experience life" is not a benefit in
any way for animals (or for any other living entity.)

It is not "more ethical" to want livestock animals to exist, rather than
not wanting them to exist.
