They keep fucking up injections, do you think they are going to get airflow stuff right?
Should just be opening a valve. There's no mixture to get right like with the injection. Just 100% nitrogen.
You would think so, but the people who are fucking up injections are making even more basic mistakes than the amount of chemicals. They are extremely likely to mess up the seals, the equipment that has the valve, and a ton of other steps that would make the process work successfully.
One third of executions in 2022 were botched. Why would a new method have a higher success rate?
Why would you assume a new method would have the exact same success rate as different methods?
Because I assume the same incompetent people will be trying something new and therefore more likely to fuck it up.
Heuristics sure are fun. Unfortunately they are often wrong and thinking things out is better. Maybe don't broadcast strong opinions for things you don't know anything about. It's a lonely life here on Lemmy but there are other ways to get attention and validation than instantiating some opinion that you've held long enough to type it out.
Because it's extremely simple.
You can still think executions are wrong without making up nonsense to justify it.
