When keeping in mind the chapter in ASZ, how disgusted do you think he would have been with being kept alive for over ten years after his insanity set in and made him pitiful and useless?

you mean

during 1890s he was still sometimes able to say things like "i am dead because i'm stupid". he still could play piano so that people discerned wagner motifs. if it wasnt for his mother he would've probably ended it himself. survived her by only two or three years.
