Primals Unquestionably Bad

[Namir]

Being evil is just a matter of perspective, we view the Primals as evil because the beast tribes may use them to attack our cities and just because their mere existence causes an imbalance in the world, but the beast tribes certainly don't consider them evil, especially in the case of the kobolds, Titan isn't shown to be evil, simply protective of his children. Also, let's not forget that Limsa was the one who broke the agreement with the kobolds and took their lands. To put it into our real world perspective, during the age of the American colonies, were the native indians evil because they were fighting against the colonists? No, they were simply protecting their lands from invaders, to them, the colonists were "evil", simply because their existence and actions threatened their homes. Ramuh is also not shown to be purely evil, at least from what we have learned from the main story. The only Primals that are explicitly shown to be evil are Ifrit and Garuda.

Also, going back to the game, couldn't the imbalance in aether argument be used against the twelve as well? If I remember correctly the reason Alphinaud's grandfather didn't fully summon them during the ritual to seal back Bahamut was because their manifestation in the realm would cause an immense imbalance in aether, possibly causing more harm than good.
