@fuzzface@epsilon-ix.masto.host Yes, setting the switch so it is, say, half open would cause a derailment. Also, you could throw the switch after the first truck (set of wheels) or wheel has passed the points. So each truck (or wheel) is on a different set of tracks, which causes the trolley to derail. In both cases, the trolley derails and no one is killed. Worse case: the trolley derails, keeps going and takes them all out. This is also speed dependent. 😁

@fuzzface@epsilon-ix.masto.host the solution is to require funcation safety engineering, with a trained assessor to certify its safe design before it's put into operation.

@fuzzface@epsilon-ix.masto.host Mathematicians reduce unsolvable problems to already solved problems. The troll problem is solved: block! @MelissaBearTrix@gives.hugz.online

@fuzzface@epsilon-ix.masto.host Well, that's some out-of-the-frog thinking for you.
