However, the Blades in Skyrim are doing exactly what they were initially built for: hunting dragonkind. They're honouring their Akaviri Dragonguard roots. This is true but they are also ment to serve the Dragonborn.

The fact that they refuse to help you if you don't kill Paarthunax goes against that. Although, I guess it could be argued that you go against them by not killing Paarthunax but like I said they serve you not the other way around.

Yes, they should be 'upset' that the Dragonborn doesn't want to kill a dragon but to completely shut him/her out because of that goes against a big part of the Blades, loyalty to the Dragonborn. Disagreeing is one thing but refusing to serve the man/woman who you are sworn to serve because they won't do what you want is entirely another matter.
