And we know what his ends are, so lets focus on that shall we over conjecture of forming an equally oppressive regime after defeating Britannia, which is not his end.

Killing innocent civilians is also counter to his goals, because he wants to create a world where those without power are not abused by those who do.

I said we couldn't focus on the cost of his methods in comparison to the worth of his goal. We already established what his methods are, and they don't involve doing the complete opposite of his ends. You're taking things way out of context from what we've been shown thus far and not basing them on anything solid.
