It sounds like a nice alternative to snipping,

Don't fear the snip.

🎢All our times have come

Here, but now they're gone

Seasons don't fear the snipper

Nor do the wind, the sun, or the rain 🎢

I think it's mostly a matter of being quasi irreversible rather than fear of surgery. That's a huge decision to take if you don't have children.

True. AFAIK the procedure itself is irreversible, but you can still have kids with in vitro if you dumb your mind.
