Love to point out there's a choice (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

option

'there's a choice' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'love to point out' is the wordplay.
'love' becomes 'o' (love means zero in tennis).
'to' says to put letters next to each other.
'out' is an anagram indicator (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'point' is an anagram of 'ption'.
'o'+'ption'='OPTION'

(Other definitions for option that I've seen before include "Something choosable" , "Possible choice" , "Potion (anag.)" , "Freedom to choose" , "Alternative for choice" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and The Globe and Mail.
