Did the SEALs do Bin Laden a favor?

Looks like there was the Pakistani version of As The World Turns in Osama's hideout . . .

Maybe the SEALs did him a favor.
 
In the months before the commandos put Osama bin Laden out of his misery, he was spending his days in a crowded Pakistani compound constantly being badgered by three feuding, jealous wives.
 
Once feared as the world’s master terrorist, bin Laden had seen his life descend into soap opera-like farce as he tried to keep the peace among his 26 guests, including eight of his children and five grandkids.

He moved into the love nest in Abbottabad in 2005, and things were just fine at first.

He shared a room with his youngest wife, Amal Ahmed Abdel-Fatah al-Sada, a Yemeni who was 19 when she married him.

Either way, he's dead.  Courtesy of the SEALs.

Had I known I would have ordered the entire compound extracted--landscape, house and inhabitants--in a single massive airlift and set it down on an unnamed island where they would be stuck with each other in perpetuity.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."
