I think there's another decision to be made first: Is he willing to descend with (measured) recklessness again? It's WAY easier to approach those descents with abandon until you experience a major drop, let alone one that was life-threatening like Jonas' was. He doesn't need to be a psycho like Tommy Pidcock about it, but he's going to have to shake those yips to some degree if he ever wants to win the T.D.F. again. And if he decides he can't, then maybe switch up his goals and consider chasing Cavendish's record or something else worthy like that. It'd be sort of like when Smoltz opted to change to the Closer role - you can continue a fulfilling career in a different way.
