I'm not sure that's what you're getting at, but I've asked some days ago, if 
Tzadkiel is evil, where are the *good* people opposing the new sun, since 
the ones that seem to oppose it don't compare favourably with the ones 
serving it. That to me is the chief problem with the Tzadkiel-is-evil idea.
