You can see it in earlier seasons too. One of the best examples is Marlowe. In the manga, while passionate, he expressed the willingness to compromise by acting like scum, just like the rest of the MPs, in order to get to the top. Furthermore, there was also his admittance that he wasn't going to kill the corrupt officers or anything; just make them feel shame for acting like "dogs that took a shit wherever".

God, I love that line.

Anyway, it showed that there was SOME sense of boundaries to his passion and methods, while the anime painted him as an uncompromising but naive extremist. They also took out Annie's philosophical speech about human nature, which was also a bummer.
