Well, you get a potential gain by trading Treachery, unless he trades it to somene else. And Epidemic is not so bad, since while you lose 16 units, you can make some others lose 10 -- maybe your neighbors, or someone who's winning. I'd rather take the gamble of being calamity-free (thus trading away my calamity), instead of worrying about which calamity I end up with.
