Thought about Jack while doing a rewatch

Something occurred to me while rewatching, Jack is perhaps the only character who is unquestionably a 'bad guy'. It seems like they intentionally made him unlikable. Walt is obviously a criminal but the audience were on his side, Gus was ruthless but his flashback to his friend gained sympathy. Mike was a killer but the relationship with his granddaughter put us on his side, Saul.. Even the 'good guys' had murky morals (hank, Marie)

Jack doesn't seem to have any redeeming qualities, he is designed for the audience to dislike. Maybe this is because he is the final enemy, but I also think it makes him a slightly one dimensional character compared to the others
