People want to believe that everyone loves sports. That everyone puts winning above everything else. That every game MUST, beyond all reasonable doubt, REQUIRE that everyone gives 100%, 100% of the time. And that any failure to be 100% motivated for the sake of victory means that the entire "game," figurative and literal, is meaningless.

Kit Truthers see no other outcomes except for one based on a 100% FOR THE WIN scenario. To them, winning and trying to win shape their entire experience of the movie, which is funny because that's precisely what the movie is about, that choosing to "let go," (unknown's point) is more important for the Hero of the movie. They literally cannot see past a scenario where someone doesn't want to win. Because then the movie loses all meaning.

Dottie must want to win. She must try to the very end. Life is meaningless without trying to win.

But that's just it, Dottie made a choice that winning wasn't everything to her. That it was more important to someone she loved dearly. She didn't choose to lose, she chose to "not win," and there's a big difference.
