Was just reading on pre 20th century amputations and how they strived to be as fast as possible, cutting through bone and all.
Why didn’t they just amputate at the joint, like a butcher cuts pork or beef? That would have been way faster than sawing off though bone.

A follow up ELI5 to this question would be why didn’t they use a guillotine for fastest possible and cleanest cut?
