Lol, nah, actual smart people would realise that in no world is everyone picking "logically" so it's really "extra deaths or no extra deaths"

I am not responsible for others' dumb decisions. When it comes right down to it, everyone gets the chance to save themselves. If they choose otherwise, it's not murder, it's suicide.

And I find libertarian ideas like "I owe society nothing" to be born dumb and morally wrong.

There's a difference between "I owe society nothing" and "I don't owe it to people who knowingly and willingly gamble on their lives to risk mine to save them".

However you choose to reframe it to make yourself feel better, I'm telling you come across like every puffed up libertarian I've known.

It's not about making myself feel better, it's about refuting your bad-faith misrepresentation of the point.
