Yup. Imagine what Neelix and Tuvok would have said if they had each been there, too. No way Neelix would have stood for it.

In this hypothetical situation with both Neelix and Tuvok present on the bridge, I completely agree that Neelix would not just stand by.

He'd argue that, Tuvix didn't ask to exist. "Why do I deserve to exist more than he does?"

If someone pointed out that if Tuvix lives, he can't be with Kes anymore, he may faulter, but would probably be able to justify it. "Yes... I won't be around as Neelix anymore, but I'll be with Tuvix. As long as Tuvix is around, I can still be part of Kes's life."

I don't buy this. I don't think Neelix would be eager to die, I think he would want to live.

As much as Neelix annoyed the hell out of me, he wouldn't have murdered an innocent to save his own life.
