Master/slave systems are probably a-ok for them though.
The only reason killing children is bad in their view would be if the child is unborn/not spawned already or if they want to abuse it but can't anymore.
But wait, does the child lifetime begins when the compiler determines that a child should spawn at runtime, or does it begin when the child is actually spawned? And in any case, what did they do to deserve being killed?
Trick question: original thread sin makes it ok to kill as many children as you want, whenever you want.
