Thanks for voicing this, I also find it interesting.

The problem is, I've been a supporter of suicide for ages, so I feel like in not your target audience. I guess it's really tricky because often the logic is using flawed assumption or blinders - no one is an island, it's impossible to die without affecting those around you...

Obviously religions, world views and differences of priorities are more nuanced, but I really appreciate your approach of not interfering with ones agency.

Is there a tie-in with the paradox of tolerance, here? Feels like it
