Option A and Option B are EXACTLY the same - only worded differently. That's the whole of the experiment. The same problem worded differently gets perfectly inverse results - both in the original experiment and in Tartuffe's frayxperiment.

Treatment 1 and Treatment 2 are different. Treatment 1 saves a guaranteed 200 and kills a guaranteed 400, and Treatment 2 is all or nothing - 600 live or 600 die.
