Was that ever up for debate? I mean, what do people believe happens when one takes a creature adapted to breathing through water out of said water?
Apparently it's a common myth that fish don't feel pain. I think it's because they show pain differently than mammals (for example, if a salmon let down an ear-shattering shierk when caught, I think we'd think differently) and people don't want to think about it.
