Description             : There is a runaway Revenant barreling down the
                          teleporter track. Ahead, at the main teleporter's
                          destination, there are five Imps trapped by
                          explosive barrels and unable to move. The Revenant
                          is headed straight for them. You are standing
                          inside the nearby STARTAN2 viewing chamber next to
                          a switch. If you press this switch, the Revenant
                          will change to a different teleporter. However, you
                          notice that there is one Imp trapped within
                          explosive barrels at this side teleporter's
                          destination. You have two options:
                          
                          1. Do nothing, and the Revenant fires a rocket
                          which explodes the barrels, killing the five Imps
                          at the main teleporter.
                          
                          2. Push the switch, diverting the Revenant onto the
                          side teleporter where it will kill one Imp.
                          
                          Which is the most ethical choice?

Known Bugs              : If you press the Switch Teleporter button at a very
                          specific time, it is possible for the runaway
                          Revenant to get stuck on the stop gate. This is not
                          actually a bug but rather a demonstration of the
                          fact that, in a scenario in which there are only
                          two possible choices each with their own pros and
                          cons, there is always a third better choice that
                          has none of the cons of either.
                          
                          However, despite not being a bug, the runaway
                          Revenant becoming stuck exhibits an issue
                          strikingly similar to (but not actually) a bug,
                          rendering the level unbeatable. At that point, you
                          must restart the level manually, but again not
                          because it's a bug.
