This document summarizes Koonal Shah's discussion of a presentation by Rachel Baker on eliciting societal values and preferences regarding life extension at the end of life. Shah notes the importance of Baker's work in combining qualitative and quantitative methods to allow unexpected viewpoints to emerge on this policy issue. However, Shah also discusses limitations such as the study's non-representative sampling and questions whether the analysis allows consensus or only plurality. Overall, the discussion examines the strengths and limitations of Baker's approach to understanding heterogeneous public perspectives on prioritizing end of life health gains.
