No, it was poor wording on my part. I 95% mean the former as implied by the conext, 5% the latter because I do have emotional difficulty with the fact that I can't explain something as simple as "death is bad."
Have you tried starting with: "Maybe death is bad, maybe death is good, maybe death is neither."
For audiences that do not understand that net good outcomes come from events with negative outcomes, append "depending on the circumstances."
Interesting, that approach hadn't occurred to me--I've mostly been trying variants of Fable of the Dragon-Tyrant. I'll give that a try, thanks!
