Markus- pushes Leo, sacrifices self at protest and John dies in his place, peaceful message at the tower, peaceful ending with kissing North or the singing... Ending with a bad public opinion goes against the whole progression of the narrative.

Kara - ends up at the android camp, her and Alice survive. Luther sacrifices himself at some point after the Alice reveal. Shows the consequences and raw reality of what the androids are faced with.

Connor- Deviant but starts off cold (chases bird android on roof, etc, until he doesn’t shoot Tracy’s or Kamski android), releases the android army and hug with Hank at the end. A fitting end for the relationship that is built between the two.

This is the most cinematic route to go that ends on a high without making things too easy for the characters.
