 It is worth noting that, while most philosophers who discuss Thomson’s Loop share Scanlon’s intuition that switching the trolley is permissible, this agreement is not unanimous. For instance, Liao et al. 2012 argue that actual intuitions about Loop cases are highly variable and dependent on the context of presentation, and therefore that moral theorists should be wary of putting too much weight on such intuitions. Scanlon could take this criticism on board, as his contractualist framework is not wedded to any specific conclusion about Loop. But he would then need to find other cases to illustrate his general claims about the significance of intention.
