  100%; that’s exactly my point (though I admit I sent readers off in the wrong direction on the surface). Billions lived at all and tens of millions died an early death? That’s a pretty great trade if your only choice is to take or pass on that as a sole, binary option.

  Tho either could have happened, only one of those things could be experienced.
