I think it's entirely fair. He wants to be righteous and incorruptible, where that means, giving every inmate a weapon and sticking his tongue out at the admiral like a four year old, as if being rude means he's somehow less compromised by accepting the Admiral's deal than any of the rest of us.
He wants wardening to be worthless, so that he doesn't have to feel anything messy and complicated about monsters being able to change without paying for it. If wardening is just compromise and corruption, he doesn't have to feel guilty about sacrificing his leverage to 'do the right thing' punishing Max right before Blitzø vanished.
He wants you to be a selfish fool so that he can be the martyr, and I'm not surprised that he can't fucking stand the truth that you've made greater sacrifices to try to heal the world than he's ever been capable of.
