It was explicitly pointed out, over & over again - that even the primitive forms of 'Flesh' retained some memory of their past 'deactivations'.
They were simultaneously both the vessel for someone else's minds & souls, and also retained a unique consciousness, all their own - that peered out from their dissolving form, asking 'Why?'.
The Doctor acknowledged this over & over again. Including the moments before he *separated* Amy's mind & soul from her Ganger - when he promised to be as 'humane' about it as he could.
If all we're talking about here is Amy-shaped porridge, *humane* doesn't come into it. Whereas, if you're talking about a sentient life form who will wonder "Why?" as you murder it - *humane* does come into it.
I troll thee not. The Doctor murdered a Ganger.
