I'd think its mostly the contrast between him and the other that make him that way. In FGO, most of the Servants seems to understand or accept that the time have changed and that things are not like they were. This is why most of the atrocities, conquest, etc they did is not judged as harshly. There is some conception of second chance in Fate.

Colombus, in contrast, don't get a pass because he kept the exact same set of morals a man of his position in the 15th century had. He is, to put it simply, a product of his time, but he appears extra-evil because he stays this way instead of adapting like the others. If you had to be fair and judge everyone by the modern standards, you would find very few who align with it completely.
