    Yes, but lower order animals. There are creatures with more or less intelligence and therefore more or less capacity of suffering.

    Euthanasia is fine for an end point but as an implanted device is lifelong such a short time with the implant before sacrifice is not as useful as longer timepoints.

      …. So it’s okay to make less intelligent creatures suffer…? Intelligence has literally nothing to do with something’s capacity to suffer. Where the hell did you get that from? Let’s see some citations on that asinine claim lmfao.

      You need data from every step of the way… so no…. Not at all.
