True ... but that feels pretty odd, considering the number of things that banquet explicitly commits to, that ended up sticking, like there being at least two Beatrice's, the existence of Kuwadorian and the gold, Battler's nebulous parentage, and Eva's survival. What I mean is, though what you say is true ... my gut response is something like "He MUST have known what he wanted to truth of the matter to have been, after raising the matter himself, right?"
