I guess I dont see the difference since in the end they both result in humans being alone and dependent on a system to take care of them.
In this case, the brother's care was nail in coffin facturing his family, then add in the psychology pain my SO had growing up with him, and the stress my partner feels thinking about being responsible for him after parents die when he calls regularly and just talks about how unhappy he is every time, its impossible for me to accept letting anything similar occur when you could just not let it happen.
I guess my point is if its preventable, stop your fellow humans from a life of suffering because its not just 1 person suffering but the people around them.
