That did seem to be a world-class world class bonehead move on Jacob's part. But both Jacob and Miranda (and the entire Cerberus organization) don't see themselves as bad guys, which in my opinion strengthens them as characters. They see themselves as doing the right thing when no one else in the Galaxy would, and to a certain extent they are right. The Reapers are coming, but other than Cerberus there are precicely zero other teams/groups/organizations in the galaxy who are doing anything about it.

I don't think that most of the bad guys see themselves as the real bad guys and beause everything is subjective you can't even say that something is clearly bad. The good deeds are what the society sees as something beneficial for the people and the evil deeds are something harmful for the people but each of us has different opinion on which deed is good and which is evil.
Cerberus has one goal - Progress for Humanity, but except the goal itself you must choose a way to achieve it. And here we get - Progress for Humanity at any cost, regardless of ohter races. They may think they're doing the best for Humanity but their opinion is not the only one and in the end, their opinion is not the one that matters. The important opinion is the one of Humanity and the Galactic society, because they will be affected by Cerberus and it's actions.
I agree they are the only group that is doing something with the Reaper threat but it's their previous actions and procedures which concerns me.
Reapers also don't think they are evil, they just do what they consider as the best for us.
(I can explain this more If you'll ask)
