This was a great post! I've been wanting to bend someone's ear about this very topic for AGES, especially after I read the shooting script. It felt a lot like Eames was supposed to be a different character entirely (namely the shady conman archetype), but Tom and Nolan made a tweak here and a tweak there and he turned into Eames. His description even said he was in his forties, lol.
It's funny, though, about the "I'll leave you behind" moment. To me it came off more tough love than threat. "I'm gonna tell you I'm taking your ride home so you get back before curfew" type thing, but it's all subjective.
