I don’t think so. It’s a disgusting practice, and the guys that started it didn’t have a fucking clue what they were doing, (and won the nobel prize for it.) They cut a hole then took an ice cream scoop and randomly scooped a bit out.
Like if you break your arm, would you say that an effective way to treat a broken arm to to amputate it? Fixing it implies a better outcome, not a worse one.
Lobotomy is NOT an effective treatment for depression, anymore than a death is a treatment for depression, or whatever.
It’s effective, not efficient.

I am splitting hairs in this thread; I hope you realize that.
“Treatment” doesn’t specify a certain outcome and OP didn’t say anything about “helping” or “fixing”.
