and suzaku is the one who is left to deal with it alone (or at least, without Lelouch)
not to worry
after all, do you really think Lelouch would have left him in charge of the world if he didn't think he could handle it ?
But Suzaku can't handle an enemy that is anywhere near as fabulous as Lelouch or Schneizel. And it isn't a problem, because the probability of one appearing in the next fifty years or so is incredibly low.

that means that if shnizel had beaten Lelouch and rained nukes on the world, he would have been proven justified ?
If an epilogue had followed in which the world had become a happy little Clovis Land... yes, he would have been portrayed as pretty much justified.

if the OOBK didn't kick Lelouch out when they did just in time for him to stop charles then HE would have been justified ?
or if kallen had actually killed Lelouch in the hanger, then it would have ment Lelouch wasn't justified anymore ?
This is a work of fiction. The staff portrayed things in certain ways because they were meant to come across like that.
Edit: Just look at the ending of Death Note and compare.

failure on the way to an objective, does not negate the objective's validity
nor does achieving an objective automatically make it justified
In real life? True, except if you are a consequentialist and (dis)like the outcome.
Otherwise, it depends on how the author treats the issue.
