Sure. But it just doesn’t have the same fire and brimstone “wrath of an angry God” feel to it. Guillotines are quick. But if you really hate someone, you’ll go to the trouble of hauling an 800 lb boulder around just to off 'em. If you really want to show your displeasure with someone, you’ll go to the trouble of loading a giant rock on a boat and hauling it an hour offshore. It’s “I hate you so much I’m willing to go to this amount of effort!”
It’s not about efficiency; it’s about sending a message! Bullets are a lot easier than boulders into the Sea, but they just don’t have the same vibe! Nothing says you hate someone quite as much as being willing to haul a half ton boulder a hundred miles offshore in a boat. The impracticality isn’t a bug; it’s a feature! For boulders chucked into the ocean, the bigger, the better!
I mean, even Hercules is allowed to take a break. In fact, self-care is a vital part of the work of any true hero! You can’t be effectively battling evil if you’re unhealthy, depressed, or sleep deprived. Take care of yourself, superfam!
Eh, just do your best, and accept imperfection. You’re Hercules, not God. Try to do what good you can, when you can. Trying to perfectly optimize things simply leads to madness.

Bring justice to the wicked AND get swole? Sounds like positives all around. You’ll basically be Hercules at that point!
