Lucas was far better at empathising with the team, such as spotting Jo's problems, chatting to Ben after the suicide bombings (7.3), even talking to Malcolm in 7.2 about Adam's death, despite his own problems. I think this made Lucas different from many Spooks we seen over the years because he cared about people rather than used them, again similar to Jo.

Which makes Series 9 even more stupid.

Not necessarily; as we saw with Ruth, he still cared for her well-being, he was just acting in a manner of selfish desperation. At that point she was arguably the only person on the team who he had any emotional ties to - he never showed much of an interest in Beth or Dmitri (well, he actually seemed to rather dislike Beth), and as far as I could see him and Tariq were never particularly close. Which leaves Harry... the one person Lucas might want to exact revenge on
