Yeah, I’d like to see the results from the question : I have a gun pointed at your long time childhood friend and one pointed at this cow, now is this cow’s life worth the same as your friends life?

You are mixing the rational component of the question in general with the emotional attachments of particular situations. This kind of “I know it in my heart” drive is the same that drives things like racism and xenophobia.

Never trust the answers to questionnaires with such basic mistakes.
