Youee had to be sure his wife was dead, and not living in a pain amplifier. If she was alive in one, I don't know what he would have done, though.

Plus, she was a bg so something she taught him might have helped break the conditioning

I assume Suk doctors receive very specific conditioning so that they can deal with any kind of injury and suffering while treating a patient, but abhor it in the abstract. Thinking about the person closest to him in an Infinite Painmaking Machine pushed him over the edge and allowed him to rationalize the betrayal, etc.

Still seems like something somebody would've tried before.

If a human/BG can control any nerve in their body, and effectively just ignore pain then why did she not do that?

Not a single person at the restaurant I work at has either read or seen Dune, and it's driving me crazy because one of our best grill guys is actually named Paul. He's the loving KH of that station.

So I'm always coming up with poo poo like:
"His name is a grilling word."
"you shall be called Usul, which is the base of the griller."

Today he asked me to grab him a water while he was hauling rear end on his station and I had a free second. I wrote Muad'Dib on it, nobody even asked why. :( loving philistines
