Does he have any reason not to? Would he be irrational to refrain?No, he doesn't have any direct 'moral reason' to not want too. Not only is it that he cannot sense his moral system, his moral system is missing. One cannot sense something that is not there. He is lacking the self reflecting subroutine of the conscience. Now most people have one, so according to MY morality I think he should have reason to not do it, but that doesn't mean he has the reason.
It also is not 'wrong' according to HIS morality to do this because he is lacking correct guidelines in his own moral system.
It is wrong according to most of society so in that regard he does have reason to not do it because he can reflect about other consequences. Jail, failure of society, ending of an awareness of reality, and so on. These are not moralities, but only justifications which are separate from the ideas of his morality, yet pertain to them. So what if he's about to die? It's wrong to the rest of society.
