Both him and the heroes falled into the trap of thinking that they were doing things better than Ozpin and that by doing the contrary of Ozpin's secretive policy they would get the right results against Salem but reality has already started to catch up harshly with them. In a sense trust and hypocrisy truly work in this volume. And Show they are no different from Ozpin.
