    According to the document, there are two main concerns with legalizing physician-assisted death (PAD): 1) It could lead to an increase in life-ending decisions that should not be permitted. 2) Regulations for PAD could be based on vague criteria, leading to questionable cases where it is granted. Additionally, the normalization of PAD may inappropriately allow people to take that option, and regulations based on vague criteria could lead to more problematic circumstances where PAD is permitted. However, the Royal Society argues that the slippery slope argument does not address the fundamental questions around PAD and just leads to hypothetical scenarios. They believe safeguards could help prevent abuses if each case is considered individually based on its specific merits.
