This type of pattern is evident throughout LC history. When they get to define what is "evil" means, it provides them with the rationale for just about any action. This type of recklessness is the legacy that WL left behind.
The blendeds obviously continued in that same pattern. Like I mentioned, I think they are now stuck playing defense. It doesn't seem like it ever occurred to them what the effects of a mass quarantine in the midwest might be, just like WL didn't realize the repercussions of ousting those like Max and John.
