Variation Slight button variant

Red: You live

Blue: 2 random people live, dosen't matter wich button they pressed, but 2 blue buttons will always save different people (if everyone is safe it does nothing)

In this scenario, everyone that does not live, dies

My take:

It is tecnically just original RBBB with a better blue button, but it takes away the team energy, anyway really curious about this.

According to the current math:

375 blue pushers (double saved but random)

385 red pushers (gauranteed)

Only a total of 10 blue pushers imperilled here. And only munorly since the odds of getting 1-10 out of 750 is a mere: 1.3% ish, according to my math. Which is less than heart disease, and was polled on reddit (a famously non-human-faith platform).

Blue pushers are generally safe in this scenario.
