You can't have it both ways.

Sure, you can. All you have to do is make it ambiguous and never clarify, that way fandom will argue about it for years. Same will happen with the spacefucking. It'll be kind of like the end of the Sopranos, only ridiculous, offensive and stupid.

Now, it's clear from these panels that Giles didn't intend to destroy the "Seed" with the Scythe, he intended to destroy Angel with the Scythe.

Oh, no, Allie clarified he was going to break the Seed. If you look really hard at the panel, you can see Angel is actually behind him and he's headed for it with the Scythe. I guess we're supposed to extrapolate the scenes from subtle hints in the panels, so I do suppose we're supposed to see Buffy as flinging Spike into his ship.

and her calling, by choosing Angel, by choosing to destroy the Seed instead of destroying Angel

Well, according to Allie, Buffy is the betrayer, I'm just not sure how or why she's suddenly struck by it or, you know, why she'd betray herself to begin with. We're never told why. All we get from the very first arc is the very ominous "It's been a long year" in TLWH and a character that's a sociopath. Though Allie and Jeanty have been saying, no, she's perfectly in character and more mature.
