Minato, do keep in mind that I am a studied strategist. Allow me to explain:
The Will of Soul Eater is present with or without the chip. It can influence me in something not unlike hypnotic suggestion, though I will not blame this for what I did. However, I have also learned that my will power can be broken. And I do not wish to give Soul Eater another chance in this world.
I heard whispers that, when Sir Edgeworth was here the first time long before my arrival, he had lost an arm. The Sir Edgeworth here now clearly has two arms. Our maimings are not taken with us back to our worlds. That is clear to me. I know that I will still walk the earth for eternity as Soul Eater's vessel for as long as it sees fit in my own world.
However...
I do not have to subject myself to that here. Here, I have an option I do not have there, and that is the removal of my hand. With my chip in, Soul Eater cannot defend itself, and therefore will not lash out if this happens.
