Everyone was already constantly losing against the Prime Evils anyways. I think she does care somewhat about humanity in general or at least striving for what she thinks an elevated humanity might be, but she isn't against doing whatever is necessary to achieve her goals. Her ends definitely did not justify the means. Still I think, given a choice, siding with Lilith still would have been better than what ended up getting in the end, which was

spoilerNeyrelle disappearing and doing god knows what with Mephisto. She's probably already being slowly corrupted.
All I am saying is that at least Lilith was hinting at a different path for humanity, whereas Mephisto has always just been straight up evil. Like...given those choices, who would you rather pick?

Man...Lemmy really needs inline spoilers.

Now imagine Mephisto outside of the soulstone but with another major demon's power on top of his.

That's what Lilith would have been after consuming him. The Neyrelle dumb decision is a separate issue.

It's the other way around. Imagine Lilith with another major demon's power on top of hers. Lilith being the driver is better than Mephisto IMHO. Mephisto has no qualms saying what he plans for humanity. I think Lilith, having had a major hand in creating Sanctuary and humanity in the first place, would have had at least some overlapping interests that would have worked in our favor.

It's like picking between one person who says they're definitely going to kill you and another person who says they'll maybe kill you if the need arises.
