Very funny.
But, I'm not sure. One needn't experience fear in order to be rational. Not to get rid of all pain, just fear. You'd still need to learn from mistakes, but just not in such a negative way.
I think it would force us to be more rational.
For instance, just because I don't fear death, doesn't mean I would necessarily take live endangering risks. In order to do that I would also need to have little regard for life.
