Harsh. Martok once got his leadership challenged by a subordinate who was willing to let Martok kill him in order to show The General the error of his ways and how his actions went against the ethical principles of their society. This lead to a fight almost to the death. Martok realised the error of his ways. After he realised the value and courage of his subordinates actions he welcomed him into his family. I'm pretty sure Sas would of chucked him out of an airlock.
