      It isn’t a different scenario.

      The point is that it is a hypothetical situation where you have to decide whether you want to influence an other persons death if it might save yours or not. The context does not matter at all.

      You don’t get other options, you have to choose. And based on your answer, you will reveal your morality.

      You put these in the same context, like a trolley problem, so you can easily compare them to other problems.

      Not to call anyone out but trying to be literal, contextualize and overanalyze abstract though experiments is one of the neurodivergent test questions

      And this is no way means to be assigning value, more of an awareness notion
