Yeah I was thinking that; Bran has been so detached when talking to people, why suddenly "taking a moral stance" with Theon? I don't even think it was to encourage him to attack... I think Theon would have done so anyway / already knew it was over and he was dead no matter what. I think he actually engaged with Theon to
delay him launching his attack. Theon is staring at the Night King, Bran calls his name and he turns round, and then it's like *long pause*... You're a good man. *long pause* ...Thankyou. And THEN Theon turns back and charges. There's actually a full 50 seconds between him saying "Theon" and Theon actually running at the NK. If he had charged as soon as the NK arrived, Bran would def have been dead before Arya's RrrEEEeeeEEEeeEEE! moment.
