Tough one here but a kid was still exploited and he took pleasure from it. He didn’t try to stop it or report it - instead he jacked off to that suffering. Maybe he was explored too? I don’t want any undeserved suffering.
Plus, this wasn't just a handful of images. When you've compulsively saved 50 thousand illicit images of CP, you're in grave need of serious mental health.
I generally agree with the OP, though. He deserved punishment, not death. I would rather see law enforcement focus their efforts on the people creating the content. But it looks like he was reported to the police, so he was busted anyways. And with that much material, you'd almost have to assume he would continue or possibly offend IRL.
Maybe chemical castration should be on the table for CP convicts. Jail, or lose your ability to harm forever.
