I understand what you are saying, but the value we put on the quality of life of pets is very rarely applied to humans in a similar situation, where the sanctity of life is seen as paramount, and existence is usually prolonged as much as possible, despite any suffering, or with a thought to the quality of that person's life.
It just seems all a bit skewed to me.
