Hi Dark, Right. I think the insane scientist was intended to be a joke so what a person would or wouldn't do in a more serious setting are two different things. I wouldn't put too much time getting on a moral high-horse about it because its a game and not reality.
If I were in a similar situation in real life I wouldn't just go around blasting everyone and everything for the fun of it. Sure, if the mutant humans came after me intending me harm obviously it would be a case of kill or be killed. However, the insane scientists are basically harmless and I can't see myself actually just shooting them for no reason since they are mentally ill and probably aren't beyond help.
