Now that you mention it, I think that “two ways and I both travel by, and that has made all the difference to me" is a more accurate reading of Frost's poem than the one most people give. In that poem, Frost mentions more than once that the paths are basically the same - it's only at the end that he decides he took the one "less traveled." There is an element of Frost wanting it both ways, too.
Great piece, Robert, on one of my favorite BBs eras (particularly "Surf's Up" album). So much so, in fact, that I was motivated to dig up what I could (and there's not much) on the elusive Tandyn Almer. I hope you and your readers enjoy....he and Brian were good friends! https://bradkyle.substack.com/p/toytown-psychedelia-songwriter-tandyn
