“You couldnt even have changed them, because you didnt have this thought process/coaching session/emotional state, etc.” is ambiguously either A or B. And I often explain it as A.
But “you didn’t have this thought process/coaching session/emotional state, etc.” isn’t a crux for A, right? I feel like if what you mean is A, then giving that reason is violating a norm of communication, and so it doesn’t particularly feel ambiguous between A and B to me.
But, okay, thanks. I think I see what you’re saying.
This is a tangent, but I’m curious if you agree with me that telling people A feels like lying to make them feel better? (No need to try and justify it or anything if so.)

No, it definitely isn’t lying.
