What you really have to watch for is a bullshit ceasefire being thrown around to try to reset the aggressor/defender framing.

Yup. Honestly, tactically, seems like a kind of bad move from Iran. They're clearly in the crosshairs, and we are clearly more powerful than they are. In some ways they would have been better off remaining engages, since both the USA, and especially Israel, have shown they have no regard whatsoever for ceasefires, and will always try to claim victimhood status.

If Israel or the USA want to obliterate Iran, they will, no matter what Iran does.

Right now, every one knows Israel started it. If they do a BS "ceasefire" they try to frame Iran as breaking it.

I mean, on the other hand, it will probably still be blatant. Everyone is still somehow trying to frame Israel bombing Iran as Israel getting attacked. They'll do the same thing.

So, on the flipside, it doesn't really matter what Iran does...The "Judeo-US" will wipe them off the map if and when they feel like it.

So it's hard to say what's the right move. No matter what, Iran will be frames as bad, and the other side as good.
