Sounds like your typical game theory problem.
Not pulling the lever: Worst case: Your loved ones dies Best case: None
Pulling the lever: Worst case: Your loved ones dies Best case: Your loved ones survives
Worst case for pulling the lever is 5 loved ones die and so do 8 strangers.
Its stated that when not pulling the lever the loved ones on the cart to survive (with ptsd).
Highest risk/best reward vs No risk/minimal loss.
I guess I didn't read the problem properly.
nah you forgot my solution of also lying down on the track and daring the trolley to switch the track itself
