Even though it's something that's technically correct on a philosophical level for SOME outlier patients, and in an ideal world and ideal system we could implement it well, I don't think our system is anywhere close right now. Working in the healthcare system I don't know anyone who's eager for this or who knows how we're going to sort through the massive haystack of innappropriate requests this will trigger, to correctly identify the few " needles" that it's actually ethical for.
