Killing those people doesn't make him a psychopath, it makes him an anti-hero.
Killing is a bad thing regardless of who you kill. Killing a murderer is hypocrisy, not justice. Trying to justify it by saying that the person is a bad person is the juvenile thing.
And it sure as hell isn't over-idealistic. Accelerator has the power of a god practically. He doesn't have to kill anyone.
Accelerator is a psychopath one way or another. Because he is a protagonist that makes him an anti-hero but that doesn't change the fact that he is a psychopath.

He feels guilt for killing the sisters, not for killing other people. Did he once express any sort of guilt or regret for those Hound Dogs?
