    Will and would are all but interchangeable here. Would only “feels” like it fits better because it’s a hypothetical event, but it’s a cause and effect being talked about. Well, effect and cause but the point stands.

    Edit: I’d like to point out that “will” is future tense, and “would” is past tense.

      You’re of course right.

      It’s just that I prefer to use “would” because it sounds less… hopeful?
