I suppose then they will all simultaneously do it and all die. Or perhaps being perfect logicians they will hold a lottery and inform the winner of their state causing them to die alone for the good of the group.

The problem seems to be that this area isn't truly wild, not even after the rewilding. The big predators are gone, along with some herbivores, and it's throwing everything out of whack. What happened is only slightly less predicta

I don't know, I can't imagine Theranos looks good on your resume, especially if you worked there after all this came out. For your second point I feel like having a higher position makes you look more culpable.
