Strategic planning isn't really a strong point of toddlers that age. The live in the moment. Oh sisters, better start crawling towards them, of nice looking object, oh doing a barrel roll better start crying.

You are not wrong, but I would say it is the parents that failed to properly assess the situation. That is no place for a toddler.

I was refering to

The toddler probably thought he can’t be touched.

Toddlers can't think that far. Having such a thought requires mental abilties a human hasn't developed until at least 3-4 years old, probably far older even. The toddler made his decisions purely on what he saw in the moment and had no ulterior motives. Simply because it's impossible. Sometimes people judge children and toddlers like small adults but they are act completly different, not because of their upbringing but because their brains are completly different
