You may be right, but based on the evidence, we can only conclude that the Whisper pushed him into both decisions. The phrasing of the whisper was to show that he was weak and a failure, but the decision to kill himself only came as part of concluding that he would have to accept becoming a monster. He had to make both decisions together.
Even if you argue that Molly's memory monkeying gave him a chance to make the same choice again, he took much longer to come to that conclusion, weighed his options and finally arrived at the same point. The whisper was probably aware of that, but it needed to push Harry into both decisions to get him to commit suicide. Harry wouldn't just kill himself. He'd make his life worth something first, make his death worthwhile. All I'm saying is that Harry needed to decide the one along with the other.

Didn't something in the building explode and knock the ladder down, rather than Harry just tripping?

Wait, shadow? Are you talking Lasciel or Lash?

And yet, no. There was no mention or thought of becoming the Winter Knight before the whisper. He had given up, and thought he was all out of ideas, before the whisper happened.
