Surely, we want to help save those lives that can be by organ transplant. But here's the new line being proposed here: at the cost of another person's life. The fit - those that can be made fit again - survive at the cost of the weak. One life is taken to benefit another. That's not a more merciful solution. That is a frightening, logical consequence of an evolutionary view of life.
From the serious to the ridiculous: Monty Python "Live Organ Translplants" Key phraes: "We need your liver." "But I'm still using it."
Need I state the obvious? (Yes, apparently.) The definition of death and the guidelines for organ transplant should protect those who are still using them.
