I don't recall any indication that the mission is supposed to fail.

exactly

so why did Irvine choke? because he remembers who Edea is

The fact that Irvine remembers really makes the whole thing so much stupider than it is. The fact that he nevers mentions anything when given the task of assassinating his adoptive mother is baffling.

They don't learn Edea's name until they've already begun the mission, so at that point, it's a bit late for Irvine to back out.

And yet you literally made the point yourself about how that was explicitly answered at the very beginning of the game in no uncertain terms.

Yes, but it's couched in speculation and isn't ever confirmed until that moment. It's a possible side effect (and Garden and SeeD are skeptical about it; heck, even when it's brought up, Quistis mentions that it's just a nasty rumor), but it's not stated to be a definite. S
