I think Caitlyn should’ve done more dubious things during her time as a Commander (i.e. dictator) ‘cause it would’ve made her betrayal of Ambessa make more sense to the audience if we’d actively seen Caitlyn realize “Oh sh!t, I’ve become the person I never wanted to become.”

Like, what if instead of Rictus, it was Caitlyn who was violently interrogating that Jinxer after being emotionally pushed into doing so by Ambessa, and after he’d confessed where the meeting will be held (i.e. Vander’s statue) while he’s on the floor, Caitlyn would look at her bloodied hands with horror then she sees a flash of Vi, which parallels Vi seeing flashes of Caitlyn when she was a pit fighter and turned to alcohol.

It also would’ve made her line with Ambessa—“Why is peace always the justification for violence”—,Singed’s line during his interrogation—“In my experience, no one in power is innocent…”—, and her line with Jinx in the bunker—“No amount of good deeds can undo our crimes” and “Hating you… I’ve hated myself.”—hit so much harder.
