This is just like I don't see Reirei as a villain in character description either, because it's not wrong to be considerate, even if you're feared  while doing something quite essential. And thinking he knows it all that's how Simba really treats Reirei.

So Ushari's problem of being portrayed as a villain probably started for a few of the same reasons, it's not entirely related to stories, but many still include an animal's reputation  in real life as part of their judgement of an animated character's scenes.
