Reading Eisenhorn Malleus, I have a question

Throughout Eisenhorn's career he was pretty obedient to the rules of the Inquisition, and certainly valued formality and the order of things. But, when Fischig forced him to escape from Carnificina, why was he so quick to move on from the fact that he allowed his staff to kill the Emperor's servants? In the book he showed some form of guilt, sure, but it didn't seem like it took too much of a toll on him. It feels too out-of-character. I feel like Eisenhorn would've just wanted to go on with the trial and trust that his fellow inquisitors would continue the hunt. Thoughts?

For context: Since I saw a little bit of good in each of the factions, I tried my best to maintain good standing with each of them.

When I went to Bunker Hill, I was fully expecting to just meet the courser and kill him and his synths and be done with it. I WASN'T EXPECTING A FULL SCALE MASSACRE. I watched The Brotherhood (even if I didn't tell them about Bunker Hill), The Railroad, The Institute, and Bunker Hill civilians slaughter each other.

I watched Railroad agents (people I trusted the most in that battle) slaughter caravan guards and civilians. I watched Brotherhood soldiers (people I called my brothers) shoot and die at the hands of Railroad heavies as well. The craziest thing was nobody saw me as an enemy, so I just straight up walked up to each and every one of them and shoot them in the head. When I felt bad for a Railroad heavy, I shot a synth or a BoS soldier. When I felt bad for a BoS soldier, I shot a railroad heavy. When they finally turned on the civilians, I killed all of them. But I was too late.

When I went inside the Bunkerhill safehouse, I watched the Railroad and BoS kill each other, and I didn't try to stop it anymore.

Looted lots of cool Gauss rifles though.
