Virtue penalty for castng Meteor Swarm in the dream

Hey, why the PC suffers the virtue penalty for accepting Irenicus' offer in the dream? I find it a little odd.

rather then make you dig through there. You said "I deserve power  for being what I am" Thats giving into the taint with in. Saying you  deserve power  for being a spawn of bhaal is evil.
Now, at last, the masks had fallen away.  The strings of the puppets had become visible, and the hands of the prime mover exposed.  Most ironic of all was the last gift that Raziel had given me, more powerful than the sword that now held his soul, more acute even than the vision his sacrifice had accorded me - the first bitter taste of that terrible illusion:  Hope.

There's a fairly substantial read which gives both sides of the arguments here. I stand by my views expressed there, so far.
