Well no, I do not think there was much other way. First of all let's look back to when Todou/Ohgi (the BKs) betrayed him. He literally had NOBODY anymore. C.C. gone (temporarily), Kallen and BKs gone, Nunnally (assumed at the time to be gone), exposed as the head of the black knights. He would not be able to return to the public without some kind of significant disguise and hiding. Even though he regained Suzaku and C.C., what other way could he have gone about this? He geassed the entire royal family to make them believe in him (when he assumed the throne). Once he did that, there was no turning back. He could have "fixed" Britannia, but that would still involve fighting/geassing everybody who tried to oppose him (or else that would just complicate everything)- don't forget, many people liked how Britannia was. The Sakuradite-Mt. Fuji plan was the only example of something that he could have changed. However, there wasn't much of a way to surprise a tactical genius like Schneizel without resorting to something as radical as that.

I implore you azul to come up with better, less destructive ways that he could have "saved the world"
