I mean, it's more like the actual scientists are doing an experiment, and you're the new guy so they want you to do the dangerous part.

Freeman was the fall guy. He didn't have street smarts at the start of Half Life. It's one of his character arcs.

They knew he was from theory so he wouldn't have context to understand what he was doing. Heck, they even made it super simple for him: press button, push crystal cart into big glowy lightening thing.

It was a set up.
