I have to assume the Israelis would also evacuate the soldier if they believed it could be done with a good enough success rate. If one wanted to follow a "no captures" approach you could send both, if they can't rescue via drone then you follow up with the muchbworse option.

That said, I personally disagree with the idea of killing your own to avoid capture.

Why must every thread bring up Israel? This has nothing to do with it.

However Israel has and does evacuate soldiers.

The maths change entirely if you don’t value individual human life. Wounded and captured become liabilities. It reminds me of what I’ve seen with how the Russians prosecute a war. Humans can be a cheap renewable resource.

That link says they haven't done this for more than a decade at least, but nice dog whistle I guess
