L'interdiction de l'aide au suicide a un lien rationnel avec l'objectif législatif mais les moyens choisis pour le mettre en œuvre ne portent pas aussi peu que raisonnablement possible atteinte aux droits de l'appelante à l'égalité. Les personnes vulnérables sont effectivement protégées par l'al. 241 b) mais cette disposition a une portée excessive. 1, record 1, French, - %C3%A0%20port%C3%A9e%20excessive

Cependant les deux ont en commun de se rapporter à un lancer trop à l'extérieur de la cible. 2, record 4, French, - %C3%A9cart%20large
