Yeah, and potentially ruin his game trying to save them or go after someone else? Besides that, it's clear both felt betrayed by Cody & neither were part of his plan to make it to the end. I think both have said they felt most betrayed by Cody than anyone in the house, specifically remember Amber saying it to Julie on her eviction. So when he'd eventually betray them in a similar way later down the line (if not having to do it in a worse way) then those aren't guaranteed votes by any means for him anyway.

Cody's making the best decisions in the entire house (along with Derrick) but staying even more hidden on peoples' radar than Derrick. I actually even think evicting Nicole would have been the smarter decision on that double eviction where he "messed up." They all overrated Hayden's beastliness in comps and they all have much more to hide from the Christine/Nicole relationship/blow up.

(as of right now it's looking fine for him anyway but still I do think Hayden was better to keep for all of them, less risky & less to hide so things wouldn't have blown up as much as it has since then)
