I am extremely doubtful about your assertion that most people would rather be shot dead than locked up indefinitely.

You're also making assumptions that people die instantly on the battlefield and in drone attacks. That's not the case. They can (and do) die in slow, lingering, painful ways in such cases.

I see. And I admit writing the wrong thing.

My point is being locked up indefinitely and tortured again and again. Waiting for pain is also painful unless you are very mentally strong.
