Discussion What would you choose, SN or inert gas?

It's relatively easy to get SN and the drugs needed for protocol in my country.
99% of helium is even easier to get.
Which method do you think is better for CTB?
What is the reason for that?

PPH is giving higher marks to inert gases, but I think I'm more likely to utilize SN in this forum.

Lucky, I wish it were easier in my country. And probably SN, sounds like less of a hassle.

But SN protocols prepare a lot. Inert gases, on the other hand, only gas, hoses and secret bags are needed. No protocol is needed. But is SN a better option?

Inert gas is absolutely way better without any doubt it's literally the best and most peaceful method there is if done properly u just drift to sleep without feeling a thing

The inert gas method seems more peaceful but to do it properly, there's a lot of preparation. You have to acquire, assemble and test your equipment before you finally follow through with your exit. We're talking about weeks of preparation.

Then, there's the expense. I have been following multiple people who are using/have used this method and they've spent upward of $1,000US+.
