I've seen materials that indicate that a hanging is a delicate thing. The drop must be just right to sever the spinal cord, resulting in a swift death. Not enough, and the spinal cord is not torn, and the criminal dangles for a while before strangling to death. Too far, and it rips the head right off the body.
Bring him close to strangulation, then revive him a bit by loosening the garrote. Repeat as many times as you care to, hours, days, weeks, or kill him before you leave for dinner that day.
That's where physics comes into play along with physiology...Body weight, average tension to break spinal cord = Force = Mass X Acceleration...Once the Force is found then the length of rope would predicated on the breaking strength of rope including diameter...
BUT getting a thick rope with enough drop would be easy enough...Who cares if the head comes off...

Which one would we want for Fauci?
I've read whole calculationtables in an old British naval doc. Approx weight, drop, diameter of rope, etc.
The knot to one side does most of the neck breaking
Saddam was hanged and dropped too far. POP.
No I believe that was chemical Ali ?
The Garrote,

A dei hire
A nice thick rope, on a bungee cord over the grand canyon.
