"You're damned if you do. You're damned if you don't."
Philosophically speaking, this game is a dilemma to the players.
If you don't play this game, then Bennett Foddy can't hurt you, ever. Which makes you a winner. But at the same time, you're implying that you're a coward who won't endure the pain of playing this game and grow from it which is one of the reasons (besides being an asshole) why Bennett Foddy is calling out the people who will only watch other people play this game.
If you do play this game, you're allowing Bennett Foddy to hurt you which makes him the winner because you're giving him what he wants. But at least you're proving that you're not a coward who can't endure pain and isn't willing to see this (arduously LONG) game all the way to completion.
