It shows hope for the future. It would be bleaker if we did not keep trying. The alternative is life in a cement jail.

    Does it?

    It shows dying early deaths. Is that better than a life in a (better) captive place?

    Definitely, trial and error for a solution is better than giving up. The long term as a solution would provide forever after that point.

    Some deaths would provide for no deaths in the future.

    Just my plebe thoughts is all.

    And as fair as that view is, I wouldn't do "trial and error involving the likelihood of death" on humans, or for me, most (if not all) living creatures.

    So that's gonna be a controversial sell, and using "save the dolphins" that leave out crucial info isnt going to be it..

    I agree it’s untenable.

    There would be many peops that agree to take that risk on.

    Even though, it would be a no go right from the start due to funding and as you mentioned harm to others.

    The thought I had is far beyond my pay grade so to speak but would not a few deaths on either side be worth it to save many many more in the future?
