"I imagine not, no. Though not getting along with other Sith could be argued as being part of our code. Peace is a lie and all."
It wasn't his personal interpretation of that line, but could recognize that it could be used as a justification for hatred of others, and he could see Palpatine and Vader using it as justification for all they did. Unlike the Jedi and the code that set them on their narrow paths, the Sith code was more a set of vague guidelines rather than rigid rules to follow by the letter.
He also recognized that the galaxy was a lot less stable, but stability won through fear, through robbing people of their freedom, would always be frail.
Of course he was sure he could find many more reasons to dislike those two rather than only the obvious, and without the code needing to justify it. But they were dead, and there was no use in dwelling in hatred of dead men, nor in worrying about whether or not he would have been able to get along with them. It wouldn't be an issue, going forward. Whatever their plans had been, they didn't matter now.
"I see. I've wandered my way willingly into a few traps before and lived to tell the tale, but... What are you going to do?"
Altair wouldn't say that Thrawn necessarily seemed to be so much more careful than him. But he would say that unlike himself, Thrawn seemed like he'd try to plan ahead before rushing into the unknown, something that Altair rarely had done. Whatever it was Thrawn was planning though, Altair would offer his support.
