So here's some Geats' "behind the scenes" from Yuya Takahashi in these collection of Tweets.

About punishing evil and promoting good, to use philosophical collision it may promote moral relativism instead (though for Ryuki fanbase still recognized Shinji and Tezuka as clear-cut good Riders).

He does indeed make some main Riders lose from DGP, but technically Tycoon and Geats are still safe as elimination doesn't mean death...

Takahashi indeed established Girori's name as meaning as self-imposed power and dominance (all his character is about). Tsumuri's name meaning sounds like Yua...

I know what Girori's thing is (especially for above), and I thought that the good thing is, his karma is complete one (I thought Geats has been good at delivering karma to the baddies so far; Kanato, Morio, Girori); being outwitted and beaten up by Riders he refused to see other than his pawns (Ace warned you..), being fired without trouble by higher-ups after mistreating his staffs he sees as beneath him, deemed expendable when he thinks he's too important in DGP and used Win as expendable bomber.

But yeah, like others said, IMO he's undermined by several blatant idiocy in his schemes (r̶e̶g̶a̶r̶d̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶S̶A̶O̶,̶ ̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶b̶e̶l̶t̶ ̶v̶o̶i̶c̶e̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶K̶i̶r̶i̶t̶o̶'̶s̶.̶.̶.̶ ̶b̶u̶t̶ ̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶s̶c̶h̶e̶m̶e̶s̶ ̶c̶a̶n̶ ̶f̶e̶e̶l̶ ̶S̶u̶g̶o̶u̶ ̶b̶y̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶t̶). So far I don't know why they don't want to kill Ace and prevent his return via his first wish, as Girori tbh has a golden chance to outright kill Ace in the Musical Chairs round as he's stuck as normal human, not only eliminate. Like simply make Punk Jack continue to attack him as normal human, and likely had Tycoon inadvertently save Ace as he destroys the Bishop Jamato so Ace is incorporeal and eliminated before the attack connects.
