That's the main difference between Historia's and Eren's reactions to the bullshit story. Historia was asked to kill her friend to save humanity. Eren was asked to kill himself. Historia doing that may be practical but cruel. Eren doing that is heroic, coz yknow, he's the protagonist. His life is his own to spend. Historia doesn't have the right to kill him. That's the critical difference.
