Again, no, you're wrong, you are thinking I made a claim I didn't make, and at this point are just generally not able to read and parse what I am saying without imposing your own incorrect interpretation on it.

I am making a semantic, definitional, technical 'claim' or argument, not a moral one.

Also, specifically to slavery and captivity, If you think slavery existed before civilization, anthropological and historical data strongly suggest you are wrong, slavery came about with civilization.

For a more modern and widrspread comparison of animal captivity to modern human society, consider prisons, incarceration, whch also came about with civilization, particularly became more widesprrad with industrial civilization.

But anyway, I won't be arguing with you on this anymore, as you are determined to continuously misconstrue what I am saying.

If your point is semantic or definitional, then it needs to follow the semantics and definition of the word you are referring to. Not being able to steal things or consume services without paying for them is not captivity.

Your point is that you made up a definition and then claim that this definition is correct.
