Whoops, you seem to have splooged your own issues all over this nice discussion. How uncouth of you!
Re: the substantive part of your comment, you're grasping at straws if you think that the theory of an implanted suggestion as explanation for Moira's behavior is "well set up." That scenario's a level of complexity far above Charles's other feats, which, despite being less complex, tend to be telegraphed to the viewer by Charles's putting his fingers to his temple and/or by cutting rapidly between Charles and the person he's affecting telepathically. (i.e. They're made really fucking obvious.) If the film wanted to imply that not only Moira's amnesia (which is similarly telegraphed as having been effected by Charles) but also that one OOC line was the result of telepathic tampering, then it should've made that at least as clear as it does those other events.
At a bare minimum, Charles should've demonstrated his ability to implant a delayed telepathic suggestion earlier in the film, making it into one of his signature moves, so to speak. In the absence of any of those narrative techniques: sorry, that theory's total fanwank.
