I don't think his decision to refuse surgery was a 'stupid decision', he was just being human. Steve's success in tech should not make him in the eyes of people be super human. Even in tech, successful people make lot of mistakes; history just records successes.

I don't think his decision to refuse surgery was a 'stupid decision', he was just being human. I'm afraid I don't see the distinction between "being human" and "making stupid decisions".

  In the context of Kroft asking "how such an intelligent man could make such a seemingly stupid decision", human are naturally afraid of surgery, no want want their body open unless they have no choice; Steve too.

    Just because he is a human doesn't mean that it's not a stupid decision, it will always be a stupid decision nothing will change that.

      That implies that living at all costs is the "smart" thing to do.
