>If I had 6 months to live, and had no other options, I wouldn't care if a drug killed me in 10 days. Give me the option.

you're not being creative enough.

I agree with compassionate use cases, but be creative here : some drugs can create deaths much more miserable than the controlled burn of a 6 month descent into hospice care surrounded by family and loved ones.

6 months to live versus a possible supportive drug regiment with the side effects being constant pain until you slowly bleed out through your eyes after total sensory lock-in -- easy a choice to make? not for me.
