Yes! The Druid is Druiding their way through the encounter. Choices matter because they let you show your character's approach to a problem.Another had them come up to a river where the sole nearby crossing was filled with watering animals that would likely be hostile if they got close. They had options: try to soothe the animals and potentially have to fight them, try to swim and potentially fail, or spend time looking for another crossing. The druid said "nope, I cast Water Walking" and the party walked across, bypassing the 'encounter' entirely.
