I don't think there was ever any need to. VX nerve gas will permanently inhibit the on/off switch for your entire nervous system, like weaponised Parkinson's or multiple sclerosis. It rots your brain while hyper-stimulating and/or paralysing every nerve in your body. The novichok agents they got Navalny with are several times more potent and it was a concentrated dose that he drank. After that he was walking dead in the same way a highly irradiated person is. I'm surprised he survived that long, much less with shitty prison healthcare.
The problem is that since the end of the cold war several countries have the novichock formular, not just Russia and other former SSRs. It is well known that France, the US, Gb and Israel went through to production facilities with checkbooks in hand. Navalny got attacked basically next door for a british chemical weapon manufactory...
