[Avodah] assisted suicide

[Rich, Joel]

I don't really understand why it was proper for the chachamim to daven
that Choni Hameagel should die. Couldn't they have davened that he come
to terms with the fact that he lived in a new generation and had to make
new friends?

Regards,
Shmuel

IIRC Choni prayed for his own death (which was the source of my original
issue)
