People knew a lot more about dying in the hospital, and made a much neater, more orderly job of it.

They couldn't dominate Death in the hospital, but they had certainly made her behave. They had taught her manners.

They couldn't keep Death out, but while she was in, she had to act like a lady. People gave up the ghost with delicacy and taste inside of the hospital.

Until 1800 or so, hospitals were pretty much disease hubs, even with Nightingale around (Who was horrible at hospital best practices, by the way). So... no.

Yes. Yes it is.

Can't tell you how surprised I am that /jp/ isn't clamoring that Komachi is a distinguished, and classy lady who didn't need to be taught manners.
