that's a good question.
My feeling is that we all know we are all slowly dying and we're all suffering in one way or another so it's not really a valid rationalization to me.
Nevertheless, I know what you are getting at. In light of the suicide crisis we have, if a terminal patient is mentally fit, then they should not choose suicide just to avoid the human condition [of suffering this mortal coil].
