Honestly, I'd be probably most satisfied with your months suggestion. It's the best thing I had thought of up until now.
All my point was that:
1) From the scientific side, the writers have a point and that our laws currently (and might still, even if we eventually do get perfect technology for this information) will protect individuals without right to life rights.
2) Morality and practical technological limits hamper the ability to apply academics.
