There is a fleet of trolleys, each with a poorly marked button that causes the trolley to derail. You could do nothing, in which case one person per year will push the button by accident, killing everyone on board. Or you could put a giant red warning label on the button saying "DANGER, DO NOT PUSH". Now five people push it per year, but hey, at least it's not your fault. #trolleyproblem
