He would argue the opposite without hesitation if he felt it would generate more responses. In fact, given this topic's regularity here, I guarantee he has at some point.
More random personal attacks.
It's silly
Except Tuvix literally didn't exist at the onset of the problem.
And? What's the relevance of that?
You're ducking the dilemma and not addressing your point of "I will only talk about fictional hypotheticals if they could have happened yesterday because otherwise there is no point" is bizarre and close minded.

So it's ok for parents to harvest their child's organs if both their lives are at stake? Parents were there first, after all, they called dibs.
Tuvix' existence isn't an ongoing threat to other lives. Comparisons to parasites and vampires are false. At the time of the question, Tuvix exists and Tuvok and Neelix are essentially dead. You should not kill one non-consenting individual, who is actively pleading to live, to revive two others.
Indeed the arguments that Tuvix is at fault for actions that occured due to other people before he existed is immoral IMO.
Tuvix had no say it in. He didn't kill Tuvok, he didn't tell them to go down and collect plants, he didn't beam them back up. He just doesn't want to die. He's no parasite or vampire. He's new life.
