Exactly. Suran's argument also misses the whole point of Triangle. The "Sophie's Choice" Olaf offers Xander -- choose between his girlfriend and his best friend -- is structurally the same choice Giles offers Buffy in The Gift. In both cases, recognizing the "insane troll logic" is the whole point. You aren't actually bound by the choices offered, you can make others of your own.
