The main flaw in both arguments is the implication that "freedom" is a scalar and is terminally valuable to everyone. There's lots of dimensionality to one's ability to choose various options, which prevents a meaningful comparison.
There's no disagreement over what each is allowed to do, the disagreement is over the value to each of those choices. And it's not much disagreement.
