Yeah, it’s frustrating to be in that position. Some communities I can post to, but some I only have comments to contribute.

“None shall pats!”

One consideration is: is there an “evil genie / monkey’s paw” caveat to this? Like, maybe someone’s death is postponed, but they are in terrible agony every second until then. Or maybe they die on Mars, but a dictator destroys Earth in the process of getting us there.

That might make a half-decent sci-fi story. Like: someone gains this capability, but they have a notion that there’s an evil-genie caveat to it. So they try to advance science, but just a little bit at a time; basically they are experimenting to make sure there’s no such caveat (and to get around it, if there is.) However, they are leaving a trail of the dead. And at the end, it turns that while no individual death/accomplishment had a monkeys-paw-like side-effect, all of the deaths combined resulted in a terrible downside.

Same. I’d save it for myself in case I was being tortured by terrorists or received a terminal diagnosis or something.

I used to have a favorite Zen koan, but I no longer feel an attachment to it. (/jk)
