I'm kind of sad his legacy ended like this but it's clear a lot of it was his own doing for reasons only he knows.

I had to read this part twice. It might be that it wasn't even the player that brought the incident up. And the player didn't think it was a big deal (out of fear or didn't want to rock the boat or it actually wasn't a big deal?):
