It's a DRESSING technique. The animal is presumed dead at this stage.
Yeah? Well when you PRESUME you make a pres out of u and me.
Hello Mr Pres(ident)
The world is full of stupid people, my friend. When we have to put a label on hot coffee, "CAUTION: CONTENTS MAY BE HOT" then you know we are dealing with limited brain cells.
Remember when that was done in response to a coffee keeps much hotter than it should’ve been, and a misaligned lid caused melting flesh and a deformity for life when it fused the skin of a woman’s privates but everyone thinks the company was in the right since they publicly spread disinformation to look innocent?
Okay, great.. what about ANY other label telling people not to do obvious things... like "DON'T TOUCH BLADE WHILE IN OPERATION" on a lawn mower. Or "DO NOT EAT" on batteries. Or "DO NOT COLLAPSE WITH INFANT INSIDE" on strollers etc. etc. etc.
But, you know...
All warning labels and regulation is written in blood
Someone did Someone died
That's all because the US is such a lawsuit shithole, you can get sued for literally anything. You're the land of frivolous lawsuits.
It's possible to mis-operate machinery accidentally, then have an idiot lawyer chase your ambulance recommending you to sue the manufacturer because they didn't label it accordingly, therefore they'd be liable. Of course in most cases liability is on the person, but safety measure regulation increases meant that companies were held liable for any small mistake, including lacking appropriate labelling on products even the most mentally challenged would recognise as dangerous...
Some say it's a nanny state issue, IMO it's just a measure to force companies to make safe (as safe as possible, that is) equipment that has gone too far.
