People have the right to take their own lives depsite how much others want them to not do so. There is a difference between what we belive is moral or correct and the decision someone else has the right to make.

What you have expressed is textbook moral relativism. Why would you not try to dissuade someone from doing what you know to be morally wrong?

This isn’t about a person taking their own life; it’s about those who assist a person in doing so. Therein comes the moral prohibition.
