Here's the two possible scenarios:
Spoiler: Scenario 1: Detonators switched, somebody hits it. You are left with one relieved boat of innocent people and one boat of dead attempted murderers.
Scenario 2: Detonators are not switched, somebody hits it. You are left with a blown up boat of 'innocent' people (innocent being, decided to not hit the switch) and a boat of one murderer and 400 accomplices who have to live with their decision to kill 400 people. Which is more Jokerly? Which introduces more anarchy and chaos into society?
I still don't even see why people think it would be a 'twist' to have them switched...the Joker does not seek justice or to punish wrongdoing, and it would totally spoil the joke.

I guess I missed where you talked about that earlier in the thread. Thanks for clarifying again... I definitely agree with your thinking.
