Isn't the answer to that question already obvious? "It depends".
If 3-People scam then they will all receive different reactions.
If (almost) anyone else were running this experiment I would happily take the "loan" to aide in your research with the caveat of neutral feedback or no feedback, but given your current standing (inb4 hypocrite) I feel like participating in this might assist you in scamming members in the future.
Besides the fact that i'm still able to read and understand what i'm reading off (jk), TF answered and clarified it already. So yes, pretty sure about that.
I don't think he would lend to you anyway, not with your current trust level.
It's an interesting experiment, but the value of it is eludes me. TF won't lend to a member with red trust, so it's almost like he wants, or needs a member with a good or neutral trust score to scam him for the experiment to work. And if or when that happens, what then? Does he expect DT members to stand by and not tag the scammer?

I am not sure what his end goals are, if any. He might be trying to see if it is safe for him to trade here.

Repaying 0.02BTC is going to prove nothing other than the person taking the loan is trustworthy enough to repay a small loan.
It is perfectly safe to trade here if you use a reputable escrow service.
I don’t see anything positive for TradeFortress to gain from this other than him hoping that he gets a DT member borrower so he can get a positive trust towards trying to repair his unrepairable trust score.
This is all a pointless waste of time imo.
