it means they're not dead, i guess, just unconscious?
so it's either the trolley problem with SF trappings, or something weirder, depending on whether you think Tuvix having their memories means Tuvix actually *is* Neelix and Tuvok

Assassin poems, Poems that shoot
guns. Poems that wrestle cops into alleys
and take their weapons leaving them dead
this is more like, should you kill one person to resurrect 2 dead people?
to which the answer is obviously no, although there are circumstances which would make me more sympathetic to Janeway defusing Tuvix
e.g. if they were stranded in space without the expertise of the people who were fused into Tuvix
or if Tuvix posed a danger to the crew
so it's either the trolley problem with SF trappings, or something weirder, depending on whether you think Tuvix having their memories means Tuvix actually *is* Neelix and Tuvok
if the latter, then the answer is again no
it seems kind of integral to the premise
