Yeah, I became less confident about how HT would never do such a thing after I typed it. Still, there are plenty of examples to show that, if HT has one character in a certain role, and has something in mind for that role, the character's the one who fills it. In the run-up to IatD, as we were all taking guesses about Featherston's fate, killed by black partisans was a popular choice. And I don't recall a single person who suggested that who did not believe that Cassius would pull that trigger. We all knew Bernie Cobb would be the one to bag Heydrich, too. This one isn't so open and shut--Featherston and Heydrich had to be taken down, the Cabinet doesn't haveto hide in a pub. But if HT hides them in a different pub and leaves Daisy saying "Why couldn't that lot come here? I might have enjoyed playing host to something interesting," he would be, quite fairly, accused of bush league play.
