This debates frustrates me to no end. Phrasing is so so bad, with very bad intentions.
Benefits? A slave is not a person, it's a tool. A tool doesn't have a possibility of self improvement, it can only be improved by owner so it serves better. Any improvement in the skills of a non-free person are morally irrelevant, because they can't use them in the way of their choosing.
The question doesn't limit the benefits to being the slave's.
