Sure, if someone in particular has little control over what they are doing or is fully delusional, then they shouldn't be responsible for their actions. Of course, neither can they be allowed to roam free, so they would need committing to a secure facility where they could hopefully get help. I was referring to an argument where we are all shown to have no real free will, which doesn't have practical applications due to its circular nature even if true.
Regarding my earlier comments, I should really stop speculating about things I have no data on. So I'll reduce it to just saying I'd ideally like everyone in prison to do productive work somehow, and for there to be no death penalty. I'm just guessing at all the other factors and I probably have the wrong end of the stick, or possibly the wrong stick entirely.
