It's the trolley problem. Hes already killed millions, leave him alive, he'll likely kill more. Kill one blobbo, save countless other blobbos.

    The trolley problem is a challenge because there isn't an inherent net positive to killing the singular person other than saving a few more. In this situation, you're killing someone who's actively harming others on a grand scale.

    This is more like shooting the trolley.
