I don't know anyone healthy that wants to die. My bias is on the same
side as, I suspect yours, and Robin's on this Keith. And provided the
method of creation didn't land the not-Brett person in a world of
pain the not-Brett person would probably respond similarly to most
others in the face of Mafioso styles of truthseeking.
