I'm not in your brain dude, I'm just going by what you're typing here. If there's a reason you like MGS3's but not TLOU's then I'm trying to figure that out (FFX's is a really happy ending tbh).

if Ellie chooses the exact same thing as Joel that's better in my eyes because at least it was her choice instead of it being forced on her

if she chooses the other thing and it fails it's still better because at least it was her choice

"The point" is she's screwed either way. We know what happens if Joel saves her and lies to her. If Joel didn't lie to her, nothing would change, except it would totally destroy Joel's character. If Joel didn't save her, she would die for probably no reason,
and that would also destroy Joel's character. We also know she definitely would've chosen the surgery (even if she thought it would fail cuz that doesn't actually matter), so spelling out the choice wouldn't add anything.


So for her to have a concrete choice somewhere in there would be pretty superficial and just go against the themes of the game.
