I've encountered the inspection paradox in debates about factory farming and people talking past each other points.

If you take the average farm, chances are that it's doing humane farming. But if you take the average animal, it has an overwhelming chance of being in an industrial farm.

Just like if you pick an average human being she probably is poor and black/indian. But average GDP per capita is pretty high worldwide.
