Sorry, I didn’t mean to imply that!
By saying “at the wrong moment” I was referring to the precise period of time at which pulling the lever could force the trolley to derail.
Funny: do note that The Trolley Problem usually doesn’t inform us of the presence of passengers in the trolley. If we can make up things on the tracks for fun, a… ghost trolley or self-driving (KEK) trolley with no mortals in it, is another fun-one to imagine!
Really makes it a trolly problem, for you all of a sudden, huh?

No no no…the train is on its way to pickup and transport nuclear war heads.
If you derail the train, we can’t blow up tens of thoussnds of innocent people in Nagasaki!

Actually, the tracks and the country with da bomba might go boom.
