    I think I understand your position.

    In a previous post, you seem to give value to functioning as opposed to being dead. Why is that? Why does functioning even matter if your position seems to be that death is the absolute worst thing that can happen to someone?

    because I believe that death is the least functional state a person can have and anything above that implies at least some functioning even if that state is still highly undesirable).

    A person can lose all brain functions and remain alive, implying that there is no chance of making new experiences of any kind. Does that count for you as functional?

      I would consider brain death to be death, if thats what you mean, I had thought that was a common enough position that I didnt need to state it. I guess I should clarify that I meant mental function there rather that just one’s bodily functions. If you irreparably lose all brain functions, your mind is gone, so “you” are dead even if some of your body’s cells can be kept alive.
