Why this meaning was chosen

حُرّ is contrasted with an enslaved person, تَحْرِير repeatedly releases a person held in bondage, and مُحَرَّر describes one devoted without competing claim. The separate lemma حَرّ names heat, with حَرُور as its intense counterpart; حَرِير names a garment material. Those two exact contextual clusters are recorded as lexical collisions.
