[Except 1] Any thoughts on this ?  IMHO, Q is referring to death here. Transpareny, prosecution, [there is no other way -edit to add- except] death. Whether it be death penalty or too intense of an interrogation by white hats. Even top level DS agents are getting caught and pressured to play their part, if they don't agree, they die from a myriad of reasons. This from a public perspective ofc. Examples: Rockefeller, No Name, GHWB etc.
