Don’t be an ass. No one is recommending coddling terrorists, that’s a cheap way of avoiding the issue.
But for the record, there is ample evidence that treating suspects humanly works better than torture. This argument has been made many times in the past, and I reckon no minds will be changed.

Terrorists who are perfectly willing to kill themselves while killing innocents don’t pass my humanity test. They wouldn’t understand being treated humanely - they would spit on it as proof of weakness. They would more readily understand fear and terror.
The Roman treatment would be the more appropriate.
