To be fair he was also attempting to hold a City together after they had managed to come together in a Dark Age. As much as the Speaker looked down on those who questioned the Traveler and it’s intent, or those who decided to study our enemies, it’s understandable when taken as a man of his time. Without the Speaker, it’s likely the City would never have become a reality.
