I can't decide which missing the explicit mechanics of the plot read of ARRIVAL I hate more, NDGT's or the one where it's "pro-life"

I haven't heard the pro-life one, but it reminds me that the movie changes the point of the story in subtle but extremely important ways (including the one that opens it up to this reading), which I've always found annoying.

Yeah, the story's version of that particular plot point sounds better for sure

The problem is it's a movie, and there isn't time to give the full narration to the viewer about why she absolutely can't change the future, and it wouldn't feel effective if they did So keeping that plot point unchanged would make half the audience freak out
