I doubt if the struggle for existence is a "pleasant" experience for any organism even with its limited psychological abilities.

I don't disagree, but the fundamental flaw in an argument like that when it comes to something like pain is that you're projecting human ideas and sensory experiences on a definitively non-human being. Just because you can anthropomorphize the experience of a fish, doesn't mean that the actual experience of the fish is similar to what we experience as pain.
