The moment a character talks about backstories is the moment it becomes relevant to the story. And backstories are at the center of discussion because FakeMemories are based exactly on backstories. The moment you have FakeMemories as one of the central issues of an arc, then backstories do become a theme.

You cannot say \"The life you live and the memories you have of it have no influence on the choices you make.\" at one point, and then later on say \"The life you live and the memories you have of it do influence the choices you make.\" and have both arguments be portrayed as justified. Especially if both are used in your convenience of being used as an argument against an enemy, and the opposite is used in the pardon of a friend.

Real!Fitz didn\'t have his choices taken away from him. He had his memories changed, but he was still very capable of not pulling the trigger, or killing Mace, or torturing Skye, if he didn\'t want to. The problem is he wanted and chose to.

Second, Ward never had a chance for redemption. The team made it very clear that they planned on killing him the whole time after he gave information. The closest they gave him to \"redemption\" was injecting him with FakeMemories themselves, and that was only Coulson, the rest still wanted to kill him.

Again, if the show makes a point that backstories play no influence on the person you end up becoming and the choices you end up making, then they can\'t later argue the exact opposite, and say that your life and the memories you had of it made you become a certain type of person and choose to do certain things (even if those were new or different memories of your life) that you are not at all responsible for the choices you made.
