What makes you think a significant number of the elderly or less healthy
passengers would also die from hypoxia? How many would suffer permanent
brain damage, or strokes or heart attacks?


As with the sky marshal's bullets, there's nothing wrong with this
scenario. Losing a half-dozen passengers beat the hell out of losing
200.


....or 3,000. Or even more!

Better to lose the entire 200 on board than 3,000 or 30,000...

Sorry to sound so crass, but that's the reality. Those are the decisions
that have to be made all the time, and that are now forced on us by our
evasions over the past 50 years.
