I don't think Syndrome was meant to be taken sympathetically. His fanboyism of Mr. Incredible and desire to be a superhero comes off as creepy, glory honding. Also everything that lead to Buddy's desceit into villainy was his own fault to begin with, Mr. Incredible probably wouldn't have been so rough on him if he wasn't so reckless, I mean barging into a crime scene, getting a bomb thrown on him, resisting the help of the hero who's trying to save his life, and causing the villain (Bomb Voyage) to escape. Not to mention that Mr. Incredible was late to his own wedding because of this. Him commiting superhero genocide far, far surpasses this pathetic "Freudian Excuse".
