This can’t be true unless your credence that you’re killing an infinite number of lives by buying a bednet is exactly zero, right? Otherwise—if your credence is, say, 10−1010101010-- then the expected number of lives saved is undefined. Am I thinking about this correctly?
I want to point out something that I find confusing.

Expected lives saved and taken are both infinite, yes.
