You seem to be saying that, because the ultimate outcome of the game is the same whether or not you get to "Limbs," it proves that the dump gets sacked no matter what. Why? No one ever said that it's instrumental to the war effort, so you wouldn't see any substantial effect in the Myth world whether it gets destroyed, say, right after "A Murder of Crows" vs. after Soulblighter's death.
For further proof, as you finish "Murder," should you walk off with the Deceiver, one of your men says "there has to be another way," implying that, rather than escaping to join with the Legion immediately, the party of escapees could go the other way--to the ammo dump. It's one or the other--one thing is accomplished, or the other is. There may not be any great effect in the game, but it nevertheless proves the existence of multiple paths, and therefore illustrates multilinearity.
