Are you kinda retarded? "I don't want" is not "I must not". He just chooses to not affect the plot as much as possible, because he is a fan of the story.
It's not like he would be punished by ruining the plot.
What philosophical? The whole human race is brainwashed by the queen, their reasoning is just distorted to fit the motivation.
Also the queen does not care how many people die, it is not her world anyway.
