They are who they are, in their hands is only the decision to fight or to run away.

How is this not "choice"?

Simon made Nia able to accept herself as herself.

Where were we shown her conflict with "accepting herself"?

And "visuals" include the expressions of the cast members.

Which...negates nothing I said. If I can't connect to the reason Nia is frowning or looks melancholy, then it's just a nuanced picture.

In episode 11, maybe. She decides to believe in Simon in order to validate her own existence. She calls herself a worthless doll, but she declares that even as a worthless doll she can still believe in Simon just like Simon believes in Kamina. Because that's what makes their lives worth living, that's what will make her a human. After Simon saves her, Nia breaks crying because her status as a person was proven. Even as a worthless doll, she still has something to fight for.

And visuals are the means to tell the story. You don't need exposition to understand the characters. You must read between lines. Shameless introspection is the reason anime is becoming so lazy nowadays.

Episode 11 is a good point.

Sigh.

Anime is anime for a reason. Anime uses visuals to tell the story, dialog is just a secondary necessity. Body language, visual design and the overall composition of a scene is the key to good characterization.

Yes, I am well aware of the importance visual direction plays in a visual medium. Please condescend to me a little more, I'm not sure I got it the last three times.
