As I said above though, forget the subject matter for a moment and consider what Helo did and its implications on a command structure in the future.

Helo did the wrong thing for the right reasons, and he's not the first. Remember when Commander Adama arrested President Rosalyn? Remember when Lee supported Rosalyn over Commander Adama, and helped her escape custody? Remember when Starbuck went AWOL with the captured raider to get the Arrow of Apollo? Helo is only the most recent in a long and distinguished line of disobedient idealists.
The precedent is already set for disobedience.
