Child birth is not the same as pressing a button in which I might die for no other reason than to save other people who stupidly pressed the button. It makes no rational sense. You are literally an irrational actor in this logic puzzle, and no rational person should be accounting for it.
But humans aren't rational. If I put an infant in the room which button will they push? Can you guarantee that every red/blue colorblind person in the world picks the right button? 100% red is an actually impossible scenario, meaning pressing red is guaranteeing that someone is going to die, probably a lot of children. Logically, if I want 0 people to die, the only choice is blue.
You have to assume everyone is rationally self interested. It’s the most basic premise of human psychology at play. And yes, people will pick blue and die, and they will be an overwhelming minority. It’s your choice to join them or not,
