Also, did Andrew call Inigo Montoya bland?? That is outrageous, I need to find the unsubscribe button asap.

I didn't read it that way. I read it to mean that Abby's revenge plot was bland compared to Inigo's.

Not only did he deprive the world of a possible cure, but he removed Ellie's body autonomy. It was her choice, and he didn't let her have it.

But there wasn't really any autonomy at stake since she wasn't given the full picture, i.e. the fact that she'd die. There's a difference in making a decision between "undergo this potentially lethal surgery that will give us a cure" and "undergo this fully lethal surgery which may or may not give us a cure."
