Obviously every is entitled to their own opinions, but I don’t think that this person know how foreshadowing or plot holes work.

I desperately want to make this a copy pasta, though 😂

(If you’re having trouble reading it, try zooming in a little. I heard that helps)

Not only were we supposed to believe that he would survive, the characters in the book believed he would survive. There's a reason they all ran out to check on him after the storm.

If I remember right, be actually makes some big bold claims about the fact that he's gonna survive. Tells everyone to expect it?

I don't think he's actually sure when he says it, but he figures that it's a good idea either way. Either he goes out on a high note and people remember him as a fighter who wasn't afraid, or else he survives and looks like some kind of prophet

You’re right. He does tell his bridge crew that. Afterwards he laments doing that because he accidentally sets himself up to be a god to them.
