Yeah, but how many people would you need to heal in order to "make up" for the countless lives taken. Keep in mind, he also had Kali and Ennis do the same thing. They would likely have never even known that you could absorb a beta's powers by killing him/her if he hadn't told them.

From the way Derek mentioned that he'd heard of Deucalion and that Talia referred to him as a "fanatic", it's entirely possible that he brought the idea up to her, too. They seemed to be rather close before the encounter with Gerard.

I think that there comes a point from which you can't really return. Deucalion is well beyond that point. The Twins were only henchmen, and it was heavily implied that Ethan went along with it for Aiden's sake, and they were given a redemptive arc that required one of them to die to prove themselves. I think that the only way Deucalion could ever actually be redeemed in the slightest amount is to make a sacrifice like Aiden did. I just don't see that happening, though.
