It’s not that it becomes inevitable, because Chuck has seen it (meaning Chuck seeing it manifests the course of action), but rather the other way round, Chuck sees it, because the choice has already been made. Yeah. I know. I worded it clumsily. It isn't the act of him seeing it that makes it inevitable, but the fact of him seeing it. If Chuck sees it, that's it, set in stone, because what he sees is a record of the future, not a mere possibility. But, of course, since he is viewing from the outside, his interpretation of what he sees can cause fuzzy areas - a bit like if I was to stand outside someone's window and watch them going about their daily business. I could describe what I saw, and it would be true, but I wouldn't necessarily interpret everything correctly!
Does that make sense? Man, this is confusing! It is VERY confusing! But yes, your analysis makes perfect sense, very well reasoned.

that’s implied in Heaven and Hell, when Ruby tells Sam that his powers got flubby ever since he stopped drinking her blood. It seems that it is only temporary. *nods* I'm just not sure how that ties in with the 22 year incubation period after the initial ingestion of the YED's blood, and the fact that practice then made the powers stronger - Andy was proof of that. So I'm wondering why Ruby's blood works differently. Curious!
that has to be where Dean comes into play, no? I figure he has to be the one how tips the scale and I can’t wait to find out how! YES!
