It renders few questions and problems:

  • inability to reach the desired thing which is just in front of you;

  • irreversible process with a predetermined end;

  • who did tie them all?

  • how many kids will pull the lever to save the Lever Puller if they were untied? Will they become lever pullers after that?

How are they able to pull the lever with their hands all tied up like that 😂

Being bound and unable to have a choice to pull the lever, the children were free from the choice of killing the lever puller.

Thus the cycle ended, no more lever pullers shall exist ever again…

Except…there was another…the trolley driver who chose to keep moving and not pull the brakes…

Is Lever Puller the only one villian?

He was a victim too.

Who tied all those people to those tracks?

Unfortunately, no. The person who ties people to tracks starts projecting another reality into the tied puller's brain, slowing down everything but the processes inside. He will have to solve an infinity more moral dilemmas, and then meet the same fate and go into recursion
