Also didn't you kind of admit a false premise here. What evidence do we have she wasn't preparing? She mentions preparing as soon as we tell her. Stopping Hermes is preparing. She fails. She mentions preparing after we leave. She fails. So you're assuming Venat's behavior here based on what?

Which, it's fine that is your opinion. I'm just asking the same questions you ask.
First off I don't need to source if they will or won't summon Zodiark after being informed. I don't think they would but that's not the point. The point is them getting the chance to try something else by having both more time and information. If that is shown to be the case and it still ends in failure, ok. That's fine. They had the chance to try which is all I want.

If for whatever reason you think there are no other things they could try then I would direct you to the existence of Meteion. She is an Ancient creation that can interact with and manipulate dynamis. Because she exists at all that means there is the potential for something else like her to be created with a different function. Which of course might fail and that's ok. At least they had the chance to try. This is what is meant by Venat having the only agency in the situation. Because she is the only one afforded a choice to make.

Also I find it rather hilarious that you suddenly ask for a source when your go to source has effectively been "Yoshi P said I could make it up."

Also also you didn't dismantle anything about the use of the word genocide in this conversation. Your opinion is that I'm using it for shock value. Clearly you won't accept that I'm not doing that, but that's not a dismantle.
