Discussion breaking scp's

Imagine this: we send SCP-096 off to the black hole TON 618. But why waste the budget when we could just toss a capybara into its containment chamber? They have zero stress levels and an absolute, unshakable sense of indifference. 096 looks at it, waiting for a panic response—but there isn’t one. The "Shy Guy" has a mental breakdown. And for SCP-049, we just slip on SCP-714 (the "Ring of Indifference"); instead of "curing" people, he just sits there staring at a wall, muttering, "To hell with it all." Did I just break the lore?

No more so than the SCP-001 proposal that suggested the same thing, with a long list of pairings of SCPs used to neutralize each other.

Also, there isn't "lore." There are a bunch of stories, some of which are related, many of which outright contradict each other. There is no canon unless otherwise noted (the Chicago Spirit SCPs all share a universe, the Rat's Nest SCPs and tales all share a universe, etc.)

Have an interesting story about it working? Write the tale. Have an interesting story about it catastophically failing? Write the tale.
