I agree, and if you will allow me, I belive Jesus said something of the same sort, with a parable about a guy who asked his sons to do something. The first guy said yeah, I'll do it, then didn't, the second said no, but did it anyway later on. Which was better? (Rhetorical question this time round.)
But they did know that they would go to the halls of Mandos. They probably had more certainty than us where they would go.
