Confirming these things did nothing, and Lelouch offered only tactical reasons why he did what he did. Nothing felt heartfelt from Lelouch for a lot of the discussion.
Lelouch was just trying to make himself out to be the bad guy that Suzaku thinks he is. He knew Suzaku would never except the truth, so he decided to just let Suzaku believe the lie since it would be easier for both of them. Suzaku realizes Lelouch is lying, so he decides to give him another chance and try and work together.
I actually loved the Lelouch/Suzaku stuff. But I like Suzaku far more than most do (apparently).
