The only reason he didn't hold back against Kogane is because he was a monster, that there was no reasoning with him. A psychopathic, destructive artificial "god" that would threaten everyone and everything if not destroyed. Note that one of the very few times you can actually hear Kouta speaking with real hatred in his voice, his words dripping venom, is when he addressed Kogane.

That does make a lot of sense. Explains why he didn't just Kiwami Lord Baron into the ground when he was using banana arms.
