Also, I have trouble with the idea that younger Eren would voluntarily come up with this plan and not share it with anybody for four years. We know what Yelena is like, and how she shoots people who cross her, because we've seen it happen, but at the point in the story where she and Eren first met, he didn't have that kind of knowledge. Actually, Eren met Yelena in private around 10-11 months before now. Pixis said so, when the railroad was finished that Floch, who happens to be a Yeagerist, had been her watcher and had deliberately slacked off on his job to let them meet. By that time, I do think Eren would've had the foresight and thought to think of this on his own. As for the reason why he's not telling the others anything, Armin obviously figured it out, and it is in some way tied to the day they first saw the ocean, when Eren asked whether killing all their enemies on the other side would finally set them free. I've been brainstorming myself over this; it's obviously a clue but I still can't figure it out.
