Fixed thanks. But no, I meant specks. It seems like utilitarianism (as opposed to just typical intuitive morality) commands you to inflict Torture. You only want to choose specks because your brain doesn’t multiply properly, etc.
Of course, not everyone agrees that Utilitarianism picks Torture, but the argument for Torture is certainly a utilitarian one. So in this case picking Specks anyway seems like a case of overriding (at least naive versions of) utilitarianism.

Wait...
Are you sure that should be specks? If so, I am confused.
Wow. Sorry, you’re obviously right. Brain totally misfired on me I guess.
