The other possibility (what I thought) would be simply that once he had decided to do it, he could not back away (people would call him inconsistent). I.e. he decided to "side with
Nog" on the Acolyte business (or anyway, not side, but back up the idea himself), so he is just clinging to it.
But now I am really going - so vote well, village!
