Like I said, so long as it doesn't diminish what they're able to do with their time left here, that their actions or words aren't spent constructing an imaginary world centered only around themselves, then I don't see what harm it could bring. But what a shining example of courage and dignity for a person to accept the grim truth of this reality and still further seek to improve it for those who will follow after them!
