It's not fun to have to breed your own rodents to supply a finicky eater that needs live...you have enough to do already, right? Also miserable to be stuck buying
over-priced live prey if you cannot get him switched, & not all snakes cooperate, or if they do, it's in their "own good time".
What I think is that you also don't need something that's weighing you down psychologically, as this situation obviously is.
And since you "hate watching animals die" I don't think you'll enjoy trying to transition him to fresh-killed prey either.
We all need to re-assess our priorities now & then...I commend you for being honest with yourself, & I guarantee I wouldn't think less of you or anyone who realizes
they've made a mistake and acquired the "wrong" pet for their circumstances, so whatever your decision, I support it.
