I think with the new trance-boy, we have 3 possible ways. 1) we fully support her transformation, but we remain friends. There's a way to set her up with Damien. For him, this would probably be the perfect solution. How a man look(after all changes) and can give birth to a child. 2) Somehow(charm) influence at her, not letting go for a full transformation, and get a Tomboy in our harem. 3) for exquisite lovers and gourmets - she's complete transformation, but she's in the harem.

It's been said numerous times that no walkthrough is required because the choices are fuck girl or don't fuck girl.
But there are other choices that seem to define the MC's personality/temperament/etc. Looking at the script, some have no meaningful effect unfortunately, just a few different lines of dialogue (e.g. when MC, Jamie, and Shauna are discussing finding Shanua a boyfriend like MC).
Others may cause a variable to be set, some involving the girls (e.g. what you choose when Shauna asks you to let her fight her own battles, and whether you choose to get on top of Natalie or pull her on top of you) and some having nothing to do with girls (eg. how you respond to Charles when he talks about firing Harp, and how you interact with teammates on the court).
Many of these choices can be interpreted in a number of different ways (nice guy vs bad boy, dominant/controlling vs submissive/permissive, sexually aggressive/pushy vs patient/playful). Because most of the choices haven't really played out (that is, the variables aren't used beyond [possibly] being set) it's difficult to guess from what perspective(s) the author is designing these choices, which IMO makes it difficult to choose some times.
I can't say I've read the entire thread, but I've seen many walkthrough requests with nothing like this brought up. Is it just me, or is anyone else wondering about these choices?
Edit: I'm not suggesting a walkthrough needs to be made. Just that the common argument against a walkthrough is invalid, and that depending on how Braindrop works there may be a day when a walkthrough will be valuable.

It shouldn't be difficult, you should choose as you wish. If later there are consequences, well, then you get to see them. There's no point in a walk through since all any one knows is what exists not what will be. Many of those flags will likely amount to nothing.

Well, I periodically get into the code and track where certain variables are used. So I learned how to get a kiss scene on day 6 with Azel.

These might be there just for roleplaying purpose. Some people prefer to play their VN's with a walkthrough open, so that they won't miss anything, others just enjoy the ride and choose whatever they feel like. These "empty" choices serve as a tool to build your own MC.

Of course that's a possibility, but for my part I don't know enough about how Braindrop writes to make any prognostications.
The obviously "empty" choices aren't really my concern, it's the fact that most choices which aren't (1) obviously empty or (2) immediately consequential haven't played out yet. So it's hard, for me at least, to know what I'm really choosing.
It's just good practice to track all choices, because if you decide later to use it but you never saved it, then you've broken the saves of people playing incrementally (or you have to start by prompting for a choice and ruining any surprise).
Personally I recommend replacing the menu statement with one that writes the last selected choice to active state, then you never need to remember to add a flag for a choice (nor do you run into issues of typing == instead of =...)
The problem is, you are thinking of choices as "results" instead of just "choices". You aren't thinking "I prefer chicken to salad". You are thinking "What yields the best result"
I don't think that's a good mindset because it distances you from the "Why" and focuses too much on the "what"

just my personal thoughts on how the story progresses.What's so special about Jamie's reaction?
especially since she knows about it since the shower scene.

I am thinking in terms of consequences, but not at all in the sense of "best result". Consider in particular the choice whether to get on top of Natalie or pull her on top of you. The author's perspective determines, at least in part, the consequences of that choice, in particular what it means for the MC's nature. The problem, for me, is that it's not at all clear what kind of MC I'm "creating" with my choices.
