That, and they seemed to have genuine faith in humanity to do good, hence the second chance. Sorry, but I have to heavily disagree.

The talk of balance is completely dead in the water when the God of Light revives Ozma anyway to stop Salem, and lies and claims Salem is the reason Humanity was killed, when it was the God of Darkness who did it. He gave Salem what she wants after going on about not giving her what she wants. And he only revived Ozma to clean up the gods own mess! As this entire thing would have been avoided had they not given her immortality and killed everyone but her. Shes the Queen of Darkness now because she was so desperate to die she jumped in the Dark God's pool, which instead turned her into what she is today.

The God of Darkness didn't need to commit genocide on humanity when not all of humanity oppossed the Gods. And they both are perfectly willing to commit genocide if Remnant is not the equivolent of a damn Utopia when they return. In fact, the implication is that Ozpin hid the Relics away so no one could summon them back, as doing so is a death sentence.

They are assholes. Seeing humans like we see Ants in an Antfarm. I will agree that total human genocide was unnecessary, as was Salem's immortality, though the latter was done out of genuine desire to teach her. Besides, the whole argument of balance isn't destroyed because Salem by becoming the Dark Queen destroyed balance, so the God of Light had to bring back Ozma as an equal and opposite force to restore balance in the world. Besides, still mostly Salem's fault because she never once accepted her own culpability in her actions, and she led the humans to slaughter, tricking them into thinking they can take immortality for themselves and whatnot. If they hadn't done so, nothing bad would have happened. However, I definitely wouldn't want them to come back.
