Why do people hate on Del Rio so much?

Yeah, he's an asshole, but look at it from his point of view: You're in charge of the biggest, most technologically advanced ship humanity has ever built. Thousands of people are on board. Then all of a sudden, the ship is dragged forcefully to a strange world and attacked by an unknown enemy. You and your crew barely survive, and there's an opening to retreat, report to command, and receive reinforcements. But a formerly MIA Spartan and his clearly rampant AI companion tell you to [i]stay?[/i] Wouldn't you have the same reaction Del Rio did? I know Master Chief is a hero and all, but we don't know what the hell we're dealing with, and I sure as well wouldn't go in guns a blazing, unnecessarily risking the ship and the crew's lives. And he gets removed from command for that. What the hell?

    Well, some of his lines are pretty funny. I've never had any real problems with how he was written, but, honestly, thinking about it, he could probably have been portrayed slightly better, because he isn't completely wrong if you look at it from his point of view, like you said.
