This also seems to be the case for most people choosing alligator, THEY don't like to swim or are not very good at it.
It seems people who are very comfortable in the water realize the huge advantage they have over a lion who likely has no experience engaging in water.
My advantage over a lion in water is much greater than over an alligator on land. I could see how people not as experienced or comfortable in water might go the other way. All this really tells me is people who chose alligator need to learn to be more comfortable and capable in water, in case this very scenario ever comes up. All other things being equal the maximum potential advantage is going to be against the lion.
