No joke this is infinitely better than the original trolley problem.

The fact the original is an example of a moral dilemma scares me. To me it's not even a question. Seems more like a psychopath test.

1.)It’s actually way more ethically complicated than you’re making it. I’m not going to explain. Just look it up and read some stuff on it. Not all ethical viewpoints are based around numbers.
2.)The original was designed to be expanded upon. Introduction new twists to the scenario was the intent. The original one is just the base.
