Call me a devil's advocate, but Satan was pretty based in this case. Also have you seen the advocates for God? They kinda suck

You're not wrong. Isn't Satan's whole schtick questioning the authority? Asking what could be different? Sounds pretty based

Entirely depends on which canon of the story you go with.
In some he rebels against authority.
In some he's a corrupter.
In some he's just the one that makes the negative case against something.

So depending on the story he can be a cartoonish villain aiming only to cause suffering, a rebel arguing against unquestioned authority, or an otherwise perfectly amenable prosecutor.
