Only from a 5D perspective. It isn't folly here in 3D.

is this not a debate of wisdom and a matter of understanding?
This is an unresolved debate within many communities as is abortion.
the reason it is still being debated is because there is no definite answers to some things that remian beyoind our understanding and we cannot apply wisdom o that which we do not understand.
What happens after we end life is still a Mystery.
It's true that there are no easy answers to those questions, for each situation is unique.
I posit that wisdom doesn't really come into play in those situations. Let's say John Doe's mother is on life support and he needs to make the decision about whether to take her off life support or continue life support. It's a difficult decision.
John recognizes that he lacks wisdom, so he asks his guru, who is very wise. Will the guru be able to make a better decision than John?
I don't think so, because the guru doesn't love John's mom the way John does. He might be able to intellectualize the pros and cons of continuing life support, and make a decision based on his years of accumulated wisdom, but it would still be a shot in the dark because he doesn't know what the mom's karmic issues are, and he doesn't know her wishes on a soul level. (Unless he's also psychic and can ascertain those things, but psychic abilities aren't synonymous with wisdom, so let's go on the assumption he's wise but not psychic.)
His wisdom might tell him to take her off life support, and he might be wrong, because she might be planning to wake up from the coma the very next day. Wisdom just doesn't work in this sort of situation.
What can work, however, is LOVE and surrender to the Higher Wisdom that cannot be known from experience, but is intuited. Rather than taking the advice of his guru, John might better serve his mother by just focusing on his strong love for her. That love will, to paraphrase the Christians, provide peace beyond understanding, and he may very well just 'know' what to do.
This is displayed quite profoundly in the evangelical Christian community. I'd guess that many of these people are harvestable for the first time, ie. not Wanderers. Their belief is that they cannot know the answer, so they submit unto the Lord. They put their faith in Jesus, as a little child. They don't try to figure it out. They just 'let go and let God' while focusing on LOVE.
And guess what? It works. It really really does. They often get their answers, sometimes in the form of what appears to be a miracle. They rejoice, and they...love.
Not once did wisdom come into play.
I submit that wisdom is something that happens naturally, over eons of time and experience. We either have it or we don't. If we have it, then of course, we should use it. But if we don't have it, we will get it over time, from our experiences. If we don't have it, that isn't a handicap. We have other resources, like prayer and meditation to access our Higher Selves, who, guess what, do have it because they are 6D meaning they are past the density of wisdom.
So we might not have wisdom, but we can access the wisdom of our Higher Selves, by opening our hearts to Love, which is our task while here in 3D.
Generally speaking, I think fretting about 'too much compassion' is the folly. Maybe even a trap.
