[LOTR] Would events have changed greatly if Faramir had been sent to the Council of Elrond?

Would the only difference really have been that Faramir dies instead of Boromir and then consequently it is Boromir that Sam and Frodo meet near Osgiliath? Obv that would lead to the ring's journey being abit different...

Faramir had more faith in Gandalf and his plans than Boromir. Odds are no one would have went after Frodo if he went.

Problem is then most likely the fellowship wouldn't have broken with Aragorn and company heading east instead of to Rohan to track the Uruk-hai. This means Rohan might have fallen and that would have caused a lot of issues.
