This mostly sounds like loss aversion versus current abilities. The proposed temporary states don't seem objectively that bad! Would Alicorn-by-her-own-strength having to cook as she does now rather than eat at nine star restaurants, or play music on a flute rather than be given access to future, superior instruments, sound so bad?
I can see what you mean by 'objectively bad', but don't see why anyone should care about the concept.
Also, I think that you have too low of expectations for a utopia -- both of your sentences were pleas that such a state of being would be acceptable, but I don't think that's what we should be going for here. Compromises can be made later if and only if they must.
