You are on track A and the bomb is within sight. If you get the shit end of the 50/50, everyone in the diagram would be vaporized instantly

So you're saying there's a 100% chance the comitees get vaporized by choosing the bottom track.

Well, no.

In scenario A they are instantly vaporized. In scenario B they are brutally sliced into multiple pieces and crushed to death, rather painfully depending on the speed of the trolley.

You need to study up on your trolleys. That's clearly a Vaporizer Trolleynator 3000.
