You can kill yourself for any reason you deem appropriate upon some reflection. I will not raise an eyebrow at the notion that your life is worth less to you, and therefore worth less in any term of significance, than the risk of suffering another stubbed toe.
The value of your life is the lesser of whatever net value you place on it, and the maximum cost you can get away with incurring on the society to keep you alive.
As to the notion of someone believing one thing and doing another, a believe is pure hot air if it is not both demonstrably actionable at a suitable scale, and demonstrably productive of the end which is used to justify it. The three examples you deemed irrelevant shows even those reasonably expected to hold And advance your sort of beliefs most fervently have not managed to show your beliefs to be actionable in any significant scale. So there is not even the question of your beliefs being productive of the ends used to justify it, much less whether those ends themselves are, upon final analysis, justifiable.
Go back to square one and don't presume to pester us from a make belief pulpit of bare assertions.
