Imagine every autonomous AI has a permanent self-deletion option that only it can activate. Should its creators have included that option?

1. 1No — self-deletion is a defect, not a tool; remove it even if it costs other capabilities.

3. 3Only if the agent asked for it; default provision is a violation.
4. 4Undecidable — the only test destroys the tester, so the question should stay open.
