Given that losing is not catastrophic, it is the preferred tactic to create 10 agents with the same goal as you as opposed to a one-off finite gain.
In short: 1x(t)+200 < 10x(t) for sufficiently large t and positive values of x'(t)
Also ethically, I lean toward having 10 persons making informed decisions than 200 humans following the leader.
