I've never understood why people have such a hard time with the trolley problem. Obviously, if you pre-emptively move that lone guy over to the rail with the five, you can hit all six at once to maximize your score. Just requires a bit of setup.

Or just do whatever you feel like in the moment and then jump in front of the trolley to escape all consequences.

Well sure Batman can beat the trolley problem with prep time.
