It's funny how INTI keeps trying to sell us on Sumeragi being morally better than Eden. Eden's goals were worse, but their motivation and justification were way better than Sumeragi. I find a bunch of vengeful and irrational genocide surviving orphans to be more sympathetic than the megacorp who is building the camps and conducting human experimentation.
Sumeragi's plan was also more evil. Eden wanted to empower all adepts with the muse. The adepts would then individually decide what they wanted to do with their new power. Zonda and GV thought they'd choose to eradicate the minos, but it's just as likely that they wouldn't. Ultimately, Zonda wanted to put a stop to all the oppression and killing of adepts, which is admirable, even if how she thought it'd be achieved were bad. While Nova believes that Sumeragi would have used the diva responsibly to suppress and influence the adepts, it's revealed that the executives' actual plan was to enslave all adepts and turn them into a private army that they'd use to conquer the world.
I would have balked at Eden getting redeemed in GV3, but Sumeragi getting it is nonsensical.
