Can't say what the writers intended, but I didn't get that they intended us to feel differently about Clay vs. Jax except for the usual TV appeal of Jax being young and hot and Clay being...not so much.
I certainly didn't get the impression that Clay was content with his decision. Rather the opposite. I got the impression that he was totally torn up inside about it, but, as a veteran who's had to make hard decisions before, is better at keeping it hidden...as opposed to Jax who gets to be all idealistic because he's never been tested...or Tig who goes to pieces when he finds out he's not the ruthless hard ass he thought he was.
