You make an excellent point. Maybe Thomas Midgley, Jr. was actually an alien bent on the destruction of Earth’s galactic expansion potential. He was, after all, the person responsible for both leaded gas, and chlorofluorocarbons.
He was a brilliant chemical engineer who ended up having the most tragic of legacies . He probably had a greater effect on earth’s ecosystem than any other single organism.
A terrible person who also died testing his own invention. So even though he caused massive damage to the Earth and humanity he also is responsible for the death of one of the biggest threats to the Earth and humanity so at least one thing he did was helpful.

Just like heroic Adolf Hitler who killed the evil Adolf Hitler, sacrificing his own life in the process.
Now I imagine an episode of Quantum Leap where Sam Beckett is Hitler in the bunker.
