Eh... to be quite frank, Thrax's character contrasted a lot with the film's overall tone, whereas you could make the argument such films like Hunchback and NIMH needed such characters and themes to balance out the tone. Thrax was an awesomely dark villain in a lighthearted and frankly mediocre movie and that created a jarring tonal change whenever Thrax was on screen, so I can't really see the hypocrisy here.
