If you're the kind of GM who would, based on the choice of a player on what spell to chose upon leveling up, concoct a scenario designed to ruin that character forever, then I'm very happy not to have ever played D&D with you.

No, not all GMs "secretly laugh on the inside" when a player picks a spell. Not the good ones, at least.
