That reminds me, this game doesn't have event gallery, but have many one-time events?
(Poor me don't even care enough to remember anymore

)
Maybe you can make a save dump before all the choices
Fact is this game would never making as much money if the dev is not exploiting all these money making revenues.
So technically it's not "Taking a massive loss".
And I don't think the dev want to have it any other way,
Despite how badly we / normal player / "poor boys" wish thing's could've been different.
That's why I said "it's a shame the dev choose this direction", but never advocated for the dev to change (they won't).
