Probably correct. Not that I condone capital punishment for minor offences, but I'm not sure that 10 deaths vs. 10,000 man-years of imprisonment or slavery is a more immoral position.
NK is a pretty strange animal, though. Enforcing strictness in one area wouldn't translate well unless there was a psychological establishment of compliance cultivated over generations. It's use is to view one potential extreme, not to emulate. Still, it's worth studying.
