@Shadowman311 @William_The_Dragonborn @vic @ColonReport @PeterPower @Skringot @UnCL3 @sapphire that doesn't seem to be the historical view, as the wide array of torture devices attests to

there are a number of people that could profitably be gibbeted

keep in mind that part of the purpose is dissuading others, and while people fantasize about being gloriously executed, absolutely nobody fantasizes about dying over the course of a week due to the pear being expanded 2 turns/day in your mouth

edit: in point of fact, you can see that thought process going through the mind of that sheboon in the courtroom - as the charges are being read off, you can practically hear "her" thoughts:

"I a real nigga"

"sheeeeeeeeit yeah I done knifed that fuckin cracka baby fo real yo"

"GANGSTA-ASS"

"I hard, mmmhm, dassrite"

to this creature, and those like it and related to it, death is basically equivalent to life; being hanged is an instant thing after which it departs to Nigger Heaven, where watermelons grow on trees, the rivers run with malt likker, and the EBT card never runs out

when you impale such a creature on the Stake of Enduring Repentance outside of Niggertown, you are not doing this in order to teach that creature something, you are doing it to overflow the 15-second Nigger Time Paradox time-horizon and hopefully cause the memory of the punishment to stick where it will be useful (other niggers' "minds") - "ayo mang I ain't wanna fuck with DAT shit I be spending like, one, two, many day on the pain-stick afo I die"
