Well, the blood thing comes to mind.

Because their blood tried to fight back?

Could this be applied to blood?

Doesn't dilute the blood they've on their hands though

Materials like these accumulate in other parts of your body, like bones. Letting some blood out is not gonna change it.

Yes - so better comparison would be “think of it like leeches- best applied regularly to reduce your circulating blood volume”

Super interesting. But is the blood then cleaned of them, or is this kind of like giving your plastics to someone else? :/

Blood letting should have a similar effect no?

Induced by the hemoglobin movement?
