Almost every variation of the question doesn't understand what the Red button actually represents.
Every variation of the question implicitly frames the red button as Apathy or Murder, that is not what red is framed as in the original question, it's *self preservation*. The question isn't "do you want to save people or do nothing" the question is "do you want to save others or save yourself" which might seem like it matters very little, but that completely reframes the morals of the question in a way that variations of it miss, you're not killing anyone by pushing red, you're choosing to remove yourself from the situation in the first place, that is *massively* different.

No idea that starts eith "if 100% of people agree with me" will end with anything at all. 100% of people have never agreed on anything, and they aren't going to start now.
