They aren't zero-context; all the value that you attach to a human life is context. If you don't grant anything else, you are just choosing one cartoon line-drawing over another. Certainly you are free to look at it this way, but it isn't really a useful point of view in a discussion about the hypothetical consequences.

What someone says they might do in a trolley problem situation vs what a person would actually do I would assume basically have nothing to do with each other. Actively making a real life or death decision is quite a lot different than reasoning though a game.
