They do end up being killed, but my point is that they wouldn't have a life at all if not for their end use. To me, better a good life with a controlled end than no life at all.
As far as efficient production of protein goes, the sheep seem relatively sustainable as they mostly feed themselves in the wild; it's the human labor that makes it so pricey.
But I certainly can't argue against visceral repugnance and I'm not trying to offend.
