From subjective experience theres no difference. The moment you cease to exists you could just as well have never existed.
Also not existing is not something you do. Choosing to prevent something for existing that otherwise would have is.

I think it’s mostly up to the reader at what tone they’re going to intrepret my writing. I don’t notice such color in that. Then again I’m probably autistic so what do I know.
