Yes, that is the crux of the matter. Boiling alive is one of the cruellest ways of killing creatures. Even before I stopped eating meat, I wouldn't eat shrimps, prawns, mussels, crabs, etc. for that very reason.
What Catherine says is also very true, however. If a creature has made it to 100 years, it deserves to live out its remaining years in peace.
