even Badger and Pete dipped out because it was too much of a scumbag move.

I hear what you're saying but i don't find it nearly as clear cut as you're laying it out.

As skilled as Mike his, he could find PI or private security work to help his fam that didn't involve being Enforcer#1 in a meth empire.

as much as Jimmy/Saul/Gene has done, he's shown plenty of shades of humanity which made his full shitbird turn in this episode more offputting.
