In at least one of those cases, it was because the villages were infected with some terrible disease, and weren't happy to stay put and die, and when the Humakti in question got infected he killed himself (consistency at least).

This attitude is not hugely different from Movie World solutions (Outbreak - with Dustin Hoffman) and I could believe it in a limited number of real world situations.

One could almost say he was serving Life by preventing wider spread of the disease...
