The text for the second option is very explicit:

If you do not possess a Rope, turn to 387.

There is no "or choose not to use it".

I guess it is a question of whether to give the choice to Lone Wolf at this
time, or whether in the heat of the chase he uses the first thing coming to
hand?

It is slightly contradictory in the wording of the two options though.

A footnote either way may help.

The text is a bit confusing, but what could we really say in a
footnote other than acknowledging that we are just as uncertain about
the author's intent as the reader?

I've quoted this over on the forum thread. Cheers!
