I think you're being overly charitable, because he's not really interested in governance writ large. He long ago decided what he thinks the best government system is, and sees everything political through that lens: is this good for my system, or is it bad.
He never actually questions his own system, because he's ultimately an engineer. He's clueless on social structures or systems.
