A good take on it, but it seemed to me Jon has been groomed the entire series to do something big, something that almost justifies all the chit that's happened to the Starks. If he just gets taken out tonight, but has some essential play in the outcome, I guess it supports your take on it. I'd be disappointing but it's been a generally disappointing season so I'm prepared for a "meh" ending to the series. Season 1-5 as good as TV can get, 6-7, good but not great (and where they lost their material based on the original series) and 8, is meh. I don't see how they will change that with one final episode, but it's been a great ride and I was a way late comer to the series.
