Roman is pragmatic in how he takes lives. He doesn't go out of his way to torture or murder people, like Cinder or Tyrian would. He is a businessman, and he thinks like one. Killing people that don't need to be killed isn't so much against his ethics, its just that it doesn't serve him a purpose. Killing enemies in his way is something he'd do, but he isn't gonna break into a random house just to kill some random folks or kill people for really small or irrelevent reasons, like Cinder or Tyrian would do.

Blowing the airship wasn't done to even a score or satisfy his lust for blood. It was part of a battle strategy...Also, Roman was under orders to do that. Salem and her inner council thought of the plan. Roman was merely the pawn to get it done. So even then it all turns back to Salem and her inner circle.

You forgot that Roman wasn't the mastermind behind any of this. He had to be brought into the plan and executed key parts of the plan, but he ultimately wasn't the one who came up with it, or suggested it. He's, as I said, just Salem's pawn in getting it done, and easy to shift the blame on or dispose off if things go south.

If Roman had been the one to think of everything, suggested it all and even took things further, then you'd have a leg to stand on. But he didn't do any of those things.
