he's not JUST an ass-hole
he was only an ass-hole when he focused on himself and nothing else
when he stops focusing just on himself, and looks at the world around him, he has potential to do a great deal of good
which is why the ending and zero-requiem is such a slap in the face
he may SAY that he is doing this to make the world a better place
but his choice of method is explicitly stated as a path that HE chooses out of several other ways for dealing with shnizel
lelouch isnt doing zero-requiem to save the world from shnizel
he's doing it because its what he WANTS to do, and is unwilling to consider other ways to do it
because its all about him in the end
which makes him more akin to shnizel and charles then he SHOULD have been
