T'Challa conspicuously offers Killmonger the chance to change ("Maybe we can still heal you" refers both to his physical mortal wound and his emotional damage) and Killmonger rejects it

probably because it require him to compromise and move towards T'Challa's utterly spineless lack of ideology or belief. Killmonger's main trait that makes him the villain is his actual belief in something.

Well, no, the part where he shot his girlfriend in the head also makes him a villain

shooting people in the head is a time honoured tradition of heroes in the MCU.

I... don't remember any of the heroes in the MCU shooting their own love interest in their head, when they'd been taken hostage by an opponent, so that the opponent would no longer have a bargaining chip

No, but they do kill people all the fucking time, and their friends regularly die to further the hero's journey.

Okay, well, they don't kill their own girlfriend to end a hostage situation by proving they never really gave a shit Because that's a pretty bad thing to do

No, they let their friends die, look sad for a moment, and then press on with whatever they were doing.

Yeah, and that's a less bad thing to do
