What was Eren’s TRUE reason for starting the Rumbling?

1. To protect Paradis Island? Did Eren believe the only way to ensure his homeland’s survival was to annihilate the rest of the world?

2. To reshape the world like in Armin’s book? Was he trying to create a blank slate, a world free of walls and fear, just like the one Armin dreamed of?

3. Was Eren just a fool with too much power? Did he lose control, blinded by rage and trauma, becoming a slave to his own power?

4. Was it in his nature? Eren had already killed to protect freedom—remember when he slaughtered Mikasa’s kidnappers as a child, long before he inherited the Attack Titan and its future vision. That impulse wasn’t learned, it was innate. But he met Armin even earlier, and Armin’s dream of a free, open world may have shaped Eren’s violent instincts into something bigger. Maybe the Rumbling wasn’t just destruction—it was Eren’s twisted way of fulfilling Armin’s vision.

Before the retcon of the ending It was very clear.
Eren was no 'fool with power' he had been contemplating his options for 4 years and when certain with his choice successfully outplayed Marley, his government and Zeke at the same time.
The main 'overt' reason was to protect the island (including his friends and all he loves). This is obvious and the core conflict of the show.
The inner 'personal' reason was a personal disgust/hatred/disappointment for the humanity outside of the walls. Eren could see everything in Armin's book but the existence of these people made it so he couldn't enjoy any of it. At the medal ceremony the image of his Aunt eaten by dogs interrupted his ocean speech and he couldn't enjoy the scenery of the ocean because of what waits across the other side. Enemies.
This is why only mid rumbling when no one can stop him can he enjoy 'That scenery'.
The tragedy of these two motivations is that 1. his friends reject the rumbling and will have to conflict with him and 2. The mass of innocent life Eren has to kill (like Ramzi) hurts him.
Despite this he still finds achieving this freedom and personally wiping his enemies away worth it.
Yes his nature of kill or be killed and his freedom boner fuelled the rumbling along with wanting to not have Historia used as breeding cattle.
At least that was the conflict until it was made to be sparing 1/5th of the global population to perpetually continue a cycle of Eldian rape and 'it was for muh friends specifically' who he killed two of and ostracised the rest from his island of which he left defenceless and ruled by a government names after the man who genocides 80% the world (good luck with the PR).
Eren in his own internal monologue said 'ill wipe them out, every single one of those animals, off of the face of the earth'
100% was always the motive and it was clear why.
80% then lose, fate slave, Mom killing, contradicting motive, 'I don't know why', 'I'm an idiot' Eren isn't canon.

It's over. Let it go.

The liberio scene is a big hint. But notice how he never states his true feelings to his friends.
