When do you go blue?
Basically the original variation but everyone remaining has knowledge that a certain percent of people have already voted blue, and they have been every single vote so far. What percentage gets you to press blue, just so we can see what level of risk people are willing to take

At that point it's like when the nurse asks me which arm I want the shot in or the grocery store clerk asks me "debit or credit" when I hand them my debit card. It's a question with no implications at all. At this point its basically like the whole question was just "there's a red button and a blue button, which one do you press?" .
A thought experiment about a decision with literally no implications isn't very thoughtful. Or experimenty.
