1. He hasn't shown any remorse or sadness for Jiraiya's death. Hell he took the opportunity to mock and try to degrade Jiraiya's memory in front of Tsunade. And yes, he would, that's his stated goal.

2. No, Light's first and only goal was to become God and create a new world where people worship him. He never wanted to eliminate criminals, he used them as a tool for his goal. Hell, you do know half the criminals he killed had already been punished by the justice system, right? When Light says he wants to be God and only God, you can't claim he wants to create a world free of criminals since that is not his goal. And he never went 'crazy', when he was finally beaten all of his pretenses were stripped and his true self came out for everyone to see: a pathetic serial killer with a god complex.

3. If he tried to go against Sasuke would have genjutsued him into compliance. He had to follow Sasuke's lead until Sasuke was weakened. Orochimaru never had a 'perfect opportunity to destroy Konoha' while Sasuke was around. And 'other sites', Narutopedia doesn't claim he's redeemed, just that his approach is different. TVtropes is still having him a Complete Monster unless he does something actually redeeming or shows actual remorse.
