This is true. That's because the very notion of (free)
will, or intention, is entwined with the concept of what defines a person. I suppose some kind of souless machinery could have done the deed. But then again Gandalf would have to build and program a Robo-Frodo substitute.
As it stands it was destroyed by "accident", and not by choice.
