Since the 2 sets of rails are not parallel, the answer is multitrack drifting, because it will derail the trolley, therefore only killing a finite number of people
The enormous stack of people off frame might also derail the trolley on the lower track, albeit maybe after more people
I thought the Divergent series' problem was that no one went to see them in the theaters
Revolution and having to regularly fight reactionaries vs letting the world runs its course.
The sum doesn't exist, but if it did it sure as hell would be -1/12
This is why I believe math is fake. The bottom clearly has more people on it.

By any reasonable and well thought out definition of what exactly counting is, they're the same infinite size cause they can be put into a one-to-one correspondence that is both an injection and surjection (and therefore an equivalence relation). It's the same reason both only even numbers and all positive integers have the same size even though you skip all the odds in the former set.
I'd probably choose the top track just because the trolley is not instantaneous and it has a lower rate of death (assuming an above poster's suggestion of derailing it by having the trolley do multi-track drifting)
I guess "amount" is the wrong term too. It's more of a type than a value
Amount isn't the technical term, but works well enough I think. Of course the actual term is "the cardinality of both sets is equal to Aleph Null" but that's not helpful to most people.
