Free would be, "hey, download this free DLC" and open it and bam, all the new content active.
... What manner of new game content, whether free or not, updates your current gaming status to the new one? That's like saying that if Blizzard releases a new, free content update for World of Warcraft that allows players to reach Level 100, you should just also directly be able to be that while skipping all the new zones, etc. that they've put in.

An exception may be considered for equipment and perk DLCs, which obviously are unlocked from the get-go once you get them. This has always been the case - even for Mass Effect.
