She made the plan because of him. Before that, the oppression didn't bother her that much. Also, do you think 100,000,000 Japanese people are going to fit in the area surrounding a mountain? Unless they planned to stuff them in side by side, low admission or denying admission were expected outcomes.

what bothers you is that she wasnt trying to destory britannia, which lelouch viewed as the only valid option

What bothers me is that, like Suzaku, she is too narrow-minded in what she's doing. She didn't make the SAZ as wide-spread change or something to be implemented for everyone, just for a select group. Lelouch always has the big picture in mind.

That was before Euphie gave up her title. Cornelia also wasn't willing to back her up when their views didn't mesh. She only supported the SAZ because Schneizel had given the go-ahead.

because THATS what he is when you get right down to it
at least in season 1

It's also a horrible oversimplification.

She wouldn't remember shooting him, unless he told her to. That's all that would change.

Charles cares enough to order entire countries conquered on a whim. He'd care enough to stop the SAZ if he didn't expect Lelouch to do it for him. Schneizel only supported the SAZ as a means to stifle the terrorists, not for the sake of equal rights. He wouldn't hesitate to restore the status quo.

lelouch's method of improving the world was one single aspect at all times
the one that ties in with his revenge

Again, oversimplifying for the sake of your argument. Destroying Britannia was a task that needed to be done for anything else to happen. Can't very well have a better world with these crazy bastards conquering everyone in sight.
