you should substitute more specific language in place of “rational”: “The self-benefiting thing to do is to run away, but I hope I would at least try to drag the child off the railroad tracks,”
Wouldn’t it be correct to say that it would be ‘instrumentally rational’ to run away in this case? It sounds rational to me, as far as you ‘winning’ means you ‘surviving’.
