I don't think he was fully committed to being evil, just wanted to run the galaxy a better way and was tricked by Palpatine to an extent along with everyone else. He literally told Obi-Wan everything in Ep 2 when he had him captured. He knew the Jedi and the Republic were corrupt, but didn't realize he was helping spread the corruption.

I've never even seen him as evil. I've always seen him as more of a "tragic hero" figure (he ticks all the boxes).

Yeah he was always meant to be part of the three apprentices that mirrored vader in some way his was the hero that faltered, the fallen jedi. While maul was hatred and fear and slavery, born and bred to serve. And grevious was more machine/droid than alive

Greatest take on the relation between Darth Vader and the prequel Sith + Grievous

While I agree, is it really a take though? I could swear George said the same thing in the dvd commentary or an interview or something
