Perhaps not in general - but for me specifically maybe... my reply was intended as a personal response not a definitive statement. Mabe it is my increasing cynicism or a fascination with psychology that leads me to prefer this scenario - especially in the case of Turin. Nevertheless I have always found this one of the most powerful moments in the opus - and one of the most memorable - even though I don't feel it was literally the sword speaking.
