Exactly.
Also, in making the choice, you're defining who Lee is as a person, and the limits of what he'd do to continue surviving. That serves to strongly personalise the story for you, even if it doesn't end up changing anything.
I wouldn't mind seeing more varied consequences for our actions in Season Two, but I won't complain about the consequences that we received in Season One. They served the story well enough, and if you played through the game 'properly' (or, to not use a loaded term, on your first playthrough without reloading past savegames), you'll certainly
feel like your choices are all-important.
