A very good question. It could be that specific “humane” methods are mandated, or there might be specific criteria as to circumstance which might proscribe applying it to some situations that might warrant it (perhaps there are requirements of significant, imminent threat that early or middle stages of a degenerative cognitive ailment fail to meet, while one might prefer to be preserved while still more functional depending just how one judges the odds).
I am not sure what the actual legal landscape looks like.
