Lockhart was being selfish. He weighed his own conscience over the lives of the assets' and all the hard work that went into developing them. All for a hollow promise that no sane person could trust for a second.

Is it cold and calculating and possibly unfair to ask him to live with the memory of watching those people die? Yes. Is Lockhart just any old person? No. He's the goddamn director of the CIA and he is no stranger to letting people die. He presides over drone strikes every day which have collateral damage.

Saul would never have given that list. He would have watched everyone of those hostages die and lived with the horrible memories. Would it perhaps have broken him, or turned him into a miserable old fuck full of cynicism? Probably. But that's the magnitude of sacrifice the director of the CIA has to be prepared to make if that person can be called truly qualified for the job.
