A very useful viewpoint in life is to consider most things with an AND perspective instead of Either / Or. AND is more inclusive, more embracing, and usually more productive.
Another thought was on Happiness.
The Fish is happy in his fish bowl.
Did he choose his bowl ? Unlikely.
Is he aware of other bowls / fish tanks, their sizes, contents, denizens ?
Is it better to limit ones universe and seek contentment within that ?
How much (choice) is too much ?
Would we be happier if we set lower thresholds of expectations ? Easier to achieve. Sense of accomplishment. Instead of a lifelong striving / struggle to higher goals.
