This is how I feel about the trolley problem that philosophers like to pose but in reverse. It's not the real world and thus serves no purpose. There is no right or wrong or moral or ethical answer to the problem, that people spend hours discussing what a trolley operator should do in a panic and only has a short time to decide. The philosophers and their students are sitting outside the frame deciding what should be done inside the frame. And judging.
