good points all around, and assuming he is alive, the joining the revolutionaries theory is a much better fit that the killer theory. I just want to point out that its very unlikely that sabo is killer for two key reasons. First, Sabo's dream was to be a captain (same as luffy and ace), and thus i dont see him bowing his head to someonelike Kid. Second, killer is famous for being a killer, meanwhile sabo was utterly appalled at the notion of senseless murder by the upperclass ppl in his home town.

Also sabo would have recognised luffy when the two crews crossed paths
