Isn’t the counterfactual trolley problem setup backwards? It should be counterfactual Omega giving you the better setup (not tying people to the tracks) if it predicts you’ll take the locally “worse” option in the actual case, not the other way around, right?
Because with the current setup you just don’t pull and Omega doesn’t tie people to tracks.

O-ops, you’re absolutely right, I accidentally missed “not” when I was rewriting the text. Fixed now. Thank you!
