9. It would actually be pointed out that Paul inexplicably changes his mind about that entire Emporer thing.
8. The Worms would talk.
7. People wouldn't take 200 pages to make a decision
6. Out of necessity, long drawn out conversations about nothing would not be as long
5. There wouldn't be three hundred sequels, each one weirder than the next.
4. The symbolism stick which we are being hit with wouldn't be as prominent.
3. In five minutes there isn't enough time to describe the deaths of many, many characters in great detail.
2. Paul would be LESS whiny.
