Well, I hardly think Bill's the only one making horrible choices. I think perhaps they're simply more starkly contrasted because his boss is so bally well vile.

In any case, I think there are lines one ought not to cross. It's one thing to use a curse that might kill someone but another to use one that one knows will kill. If we start using the Unforgivables all the time, what's to separate us from the enemy? (To say nothing of the fact that killing them like that denies them or the survivors any due process.)

It makes our job that much more difficult, true, but I'd rather not win by taking short cuts with my conscience.
