His contempt for humans and overwhelming arrogance and cruelty is mitigated to a great extent by the fact that he’s suffered consequences for his actions, spending ages blind and flightless wallowing in bitterness and sorrow. Death was a mercy to him, and he seems to have genuinely regretted everything at the end, making this one part of Aaravos’ revenge that was truly satisfying in some way. Kareem OTOH was just a stupid bitch who had everything as well as plenty of love and second chances from people who loved him despite his crimes and still threw it all away for his arrogance and prejudice. The instant karma he got at the hand of Aaravos - literally - was STILL more merciful than what he deserved given what he did, at once satisfying and yet still perfectly part of his pattern of privilege of getting better than what he’s earned.
