27. It's been proven torture produces unreliable info
So why would you torture only to discover that the info you gained was so seriously flawed?

It makes no sense! Even with the ticking bomb scenario, perhaps even especially IF you have a ticking bomb scenario, torture would be the absolutely wrong method of extracting reliable information to defuse the bomb.
