I choose the specks. My utility function u(what happens to person 1, what happens to person 2, …, what happens to person N) doesn’t equal f_1(what happens to person 1) + f_2(what happens to person 2) + … + f_N(what happens to person N) for any choice of f_1, …, f_N, not even allowing them to be different; in particular, u(each of n people gets one speck in their eye) doesn’t approaches a finite limit as n approaches infinity, and this limit is less negative than u(one person gets tortured than 50 years)
