One can't say for sure the choices Max would have made. But considering his nature and being somewhat kind even while being a hired killer went to show that he was a man of honor. Even during his job which required him to kill innocents, he did some homework, trying to find at least one excuse that his victim deserved his death.
A habit that turned useful not too long ago.
But this was not about his past, but Max's future. And I can't let him meet that thing so soon. For one, she is barely functioning and due to our lack of knowledge, some issues also arose. So better than making him look for questions and why did we the things we did. It's better for him to be on his last legs, unable to do anything or make a choice that might be detrimental to our future.
My future.
