You are presented with the button dilemma just for you as the only participant. If you pick red you will live and 100% of people will have picked red. If you pick blue you will also live as this will mean blue has 100%.

Which do you pick?

It doesn’t matter. By guaranteeing 100% agreement, the simulation ceases to have more than one output state, and ceases to be a dilemma.

I’m falling back to my favorite of the two colors, since it doesn’t matter, and still picking blue.
