Let’s uh, make the questiob better.
Assume that helping people means disabled people can walk, while the hurt people can no longer walk.

Like it’s very possible that the 10k could be more valuable to me than the 100k but I don’t know. I will never make a decision based on population alone. Not even a billion to one

i dont see how its irrelevant? if the hurt is like “people are seveerly distraught by what happens” i would probably say no, if the hurt is like “they are inconvienced or things arent optimal but they’ll be fine” i’d probably say yes

literally haven’t read a word in this conversation since the trolley was mentioned

The question is whether the scale changes things? Not whether it’s good or bad?

buuuut also the question is still asking just about whether the proportions make a difference, rather than the actual answer

so no, it still makes no difference
