I think of it as a case of cultural relativity where ST holds radically different values from FT. FT values their "nakama" first and foremost. On the other hand, ST only values strength. If we assume that all their actions were done with this goal in mind, it's understandable that they wouldn't pay attention to "petty" considerations like the welfare of their weaker guild members. Now, if we view the incident from the lens of such a philosophy, it can be interpreted as a warning for anyone who might fail the guild in the future.

Remember, an act is only malicious if a person engages in it out of ill will for another person. If the action is performed with a pragmatic rationale in mind, it would be better classified as extremism.
So if I lost horribly in a sports club and my coach forces me to strip down in front of every one of my teammates and proceeds to say "you suck, get out of here" as punishment you would only consider it "extreme".

Ok glad to see you have such a high moral standard.

On a side note Natsu didn't get whorfed. Holy shit is this something rare.
