The decision to take harm to oneself off the table is unfathomable to him. A restriction that, even with the free will granted to him by forgoing his powers and becoming peri, he would never imagine demanding. If there is a chance that he might go out of control and hurt others, he would want to be stopped by whatever means possible. And he knows that if Robin were to turn towards the behaviors of some of his predecessors, he would not hesitate to stop Robin as well.
He felt no sense of regret upon hearing of Hobgoblin's death, for instance.
"I will not promise to hold to those restrictions. I would not hold steadfastly to those restrictions for any individual, inside or outside of this room, or indeed anyone from my own world," Ishiah says, the scar along his jaw bleeding white. "I can only promise to try and arrive at a solution that everyone involved would be satisfied with. You have told me that some of your memories involve slaughter and other such atrocities, Castiel. I want to avoid the potential of that being triggered."
