The "Blades", as they are now, are just hung up on pointless hate & finding easy excuses for killings in the name of days long gone by.

The "wrath of the Dragonborn" is exactly the same as the wrath of any Dovah. The Dragonborn's very own soul is that of a Dragon's, so he/she is just as potentially dangerous as any other. Hence why I believe the "Blades" would eventually turn on the Dragonborn after they believe he/she no longer serves a purpose.

Paarthurnax has atoned for his crimes over the millennia, was arguably the reason why humanity won the Dragon War, and aids the Dragonborn to ensure Alduin's defeat... while the "Blades" have festered in obscurity in recent years.

It's pretty obvious which one has done more good, especially in recent years. The "Blades" crave glory, while Paarthy helps you save the world.
