I wasn't looking at the commercial egg people and their publicity pushers, I looked at research sites. I saw what mother earth published and read many, but they do not back their claims with cited research work, the authors just make claims.

Mother Earth news has done a study on Free Range eggs and shown that they are more nutritious then commercial eggs. You have to check to see who is putting out the study when they say FRE are not better. It is usually going to be the commercial egg people. I guess, like everything else you choose to believe what you want. also, before ref. and still in some areas eggs are left on the counter and still are perfectly good. again many differences of Opinion. choose what works for you.

Remember the purpose of an egg to a chicken is not food for us, but for their reproduction. We can genetically breed traits to only to a certain extent.

Leaving eggs sitting out reduces egg quality quickly.
