That's a good point
First of all I am indecisive person. There are a saying in Russia, about indecisive donkey, who stood in fields between two stacks of hay. The donkey couldn't decide which one to eat first, and died of staravation. It's about me
I may process hundreds of variants of outcome, but can't decide which one is the best. So asking for opinion from the "outside" is kinda lifesaver for me.
And the second question is a philosophical one. A bit about democracy and stuff. Who are really in charge - the ones who are choosing the option, or the ones who provide you the variants? That's the thing here - I let my dear patrons decide what will be the most interesting way to tell this story, but all of the provided options are acceptable for me, and it's more like "'help" me, then "lead" me. It forced me to revamp my story couple of times, though, but I'm cool with, because I like the flow and feedback helps me to see weak points.
