One example was if you should kill somebody that doesn't want to die if I know that death would cause less suffering for them than letting them live. Or something like that. I said imposing on somebody's choice will cause an unnecessary suffering and also the psychological suffering it would cause me, personally, wouldn't justify it.

It was a stupid hypothetical that has no practical use in the real world.
