Ok, pseudo-rational. What is the rational assessment from this?

I don't know why you're basing your assumptions on fan translations when Crunchyroll is the one who provides the official translations as they have the partnership with Kodansha for that purpose, and in their translation of chapter 82 both sentences are written in past tense: "You were always the bravest of us all", "His body may have burned out... but the dream he left his friend remains".

Also, there's no one next to Armin in the bottom right panel of page 39 because that is seen from Bertolt's perspective and if there was someone else there, and even someone who potentially saved Armin, Bertolt would have seen them and eliminated them; but he didn't even react to that hypothetical person's presence and just said "It's over. Ok, next is Eren and the horses". What you're seeing is just the wooden of the roof.

If that's what you consider a "rational assessment" you're a bit confused with your definition of the term.
