Well, I'm not saying that evil things can't love, just that the fact that he sacrificed something he loved for the sake of his goal to me is a sign that it's not as simple as disregarding the value of life as much as thinking this goal is so good as to be worth sacrifices, and that he is willing to make them as well.

But yeah I'm also not saying it's neutral because it's half and half as a copout. I'm saying it's neutral because the goal is (theoretically) good and the killing is efficient obstacle removal. If he could as efficiently achieve his goal by ways of diplomacy, I have no reason to think he wouldn't. An evil person would more likely gain some sort of pleasure from the killing, or kill for trifling reasons. If your goal is the prosperity of the universe though? There's something to spin there.

Now it's a lot of killing so I can respect calling him evil just for that. I also think that giving people prosperity without asking for their input or anything on the costs also leans him that way, perhaps even moreso than the killing itself. But I think it's a bit more complicated than "he killed therefore he is evil."
