Spoilers, so my brief thoughts are under the cut:
I see what the writers here were trying to convey - I think, anyway - by making Sam say what he did.
He was trying to say that if Dean wanted to die then Sam wouldn't try to bring him back. The problem lies with the fact that the writer bungled it - probably intentionally, to spin out the drama for longer, which I heartily disapprove of. It's not a soap, goddammit, and they are treating it like a soap.
I don't like the way they are trying to spin out a false premise to make drama, and I do think that they are operating on a false premise here. How was Dean to know that Sam was ready to die? The last thing Sam said to him was, "What's happening?" as the angels fell. All the subsequent action happened inside Sam's head, where Dean absolutely was not present.
How could he possibly know Sam was making his peace with Death?
Get a clue, Carver et al. You are not thinking things through.
