Eh, letting the customer footgun never comes off well. They will always fundamentally blame your advice or lack of advice.

Hard disagree. Framing it this way makes it seem like all possibilities are equally valid options. Yet you’ve somehow winnowed the field of infinity to the several options presented. You did that through successive rounds of professional judgement that eliminated options you did not consider fit to propose.
Taking options off of the client’s table is the core responsibility here.
