Description

And don't worry: the reason he won't give his technology to Tom isn't the cliche "humanity will use it wrong"/"Humanity's not ready" thing.
It's actually much more simple.

So he doesn't want to do it because it would be incredibly painful, right?

I can see it from both sides--I can understand Jupiter's point of view because that would essentially be submitting to torture, plus he hadn't been asked beforehand in the first place. But I can also see Tom's point of view because in his mind this could potentially save many lives.

I think the problem here is that it's easy to say "oh yeah, I would submit to pain if it would save people!" in a purely hypothetical situation, but in a very real "we can take you in right now and rip you apart and put you back together" situation, it would be very, very hard to actually say you'd go through with it.
