That's irrelevant. In his first sorties Kio was critized by Shanuala in regards to how he was conducting himself during the fight. Then he was also dealt a blow when he found out she was a traitor yet after that nothing came out of it.
That still doesn't explain why his skills have degraded. And again he himself made that decision to continue fighting his own way and if its as bad as you say it is he shouldn't be there in the first place. What did most gundam pilots do when it came down to those things? They simply refused to fight or even get in the damn suit.
ANd he's still pulling the damn trigger which involves him disabling suits, he's simply not looking to kill them so he clearly doesn't have an issue with that part.

Also what I mean by see the Vagan as human is simple. With the combination of Flint dehumanizing the Vagan and Kio lack of knowledge of them beyond what he has seen on the battle field led him to classify all Vagan as monster that need to be destroyed. Now Kio goes to the second moon and sees that they all aren't evil as his Grandpa led him to believe.

?????
We saw nothing of that sort. He met a sick girl and all of a sudden that justifies everything that the Vagans have done in the war? The fact that Ezcelant pointed out he thought Kio was his son doesn't help that either.
We didn't even see a single Vagan who was against the war to begin with or even question why they were fighting in the first place.
