Your argument is valid, but by the same logic selling yourself for work is unethical, yet we all do it. I agree there is logic to it and the system of incentives is messed up, but I don't necessarily agree selling yourself for cannibalism is any worse than selling yourself for labor.

my solution to this is that selling yourself for labour is fucking disgusting and it's absolutely fucking insane that we're all largely fine with it

i did it once and i feel dirty for having done it, blessedly i live in a luxurious country so i plan on working for a co-operative or charity if at all possible.
