Popa,

I don’t quite understand. If the switcher knows that it is in fact not her baby, why would she say don’t chop? In the navi the switcher agrees for the baby to be chopped precisely because it wasn’t her own.

But lets say the switcher yells don’t chop along with the real mother only because she is compassionate and doesn’t want another baby killed. Then according to your answer it seems she would get the baby on sheer virtue of waking up with it? Of course the switcher woke up with it if she switched it! So now the real mom wouldn’t get the baby?

Perhaps I misunderstood your answer. Please explain!
