the problem was that they COULD have made lelouch's plan more heroic by having him focus on stopping shnizel
by having him make it clear that he is becoming a monster, because normal people cant fight against something like the damocles
that a normal commander who cares about his soldiers could never send them against something that could wipe them out by the thousands with every shot, and there for the only one who can fight it is someone who views his soldiers as disposable ants
that a ruler who cares about his people would be forced to surrender the second the damocels shows up on his front door, and so the only leader able to oppose it, is someone who could not care less if his entire country turns to dust
that he HAS to attack the UFN in order to make shnizel want to side with them, and thus spare them from the flejias
that the end result of having him conquer the world by taking over the damocles was a RESULT of winning the battle, rather then an INTENTION all along
and that having suzaku kill him was done, not out of some bullshit claim that he would earse the worlds hate, but out of a belief that he (monster that he has become) has no place in this world anymore
he doesnt try to CHANGE the world with some bullshit plot, but he SAVES it from a greater evil, and then leaves it in the hands of its people
Agreed, except that in your example, I think it would make sense for him to try claiming that beating Schneizel would have been the end of it, but no one would believe him anymore, so he would act the part of dictator during ZR and have Suzaku as Zero kill him. I already mentioned this a little earlier.
