That's true but we still have Homura who, even if she could stand for Valentine, doesn't fit into the play entirely and could thus add to a different outcome that leaves us with a satisfying spark of light. And, Urobuchi might base things on Faust, but I assume he didn't just apply the entire play on the series so noticable differences are eventually a good possibility. Let's just stay optimistic!
