I have to point out that her accusation against Ainz isn't baseless so much as futile. The Dwarves also entertained the notion that Ainz might be conspiring with the Quagoa against them...but they concluded that even if it were all a game of "good cop, bad cop" they'd best choose the offer of "good cop".

The discussion with Caspond has to dance around that point, because Remedios is present (and because Caspond would prefer to convince everyone that Ainz really wasn't connected with Jaldaboath).

One gets the feeling in Vol 12 that the dwarves are still basically uneasy about the undead, but figure the rational thing to do is laugh that off and focus on the concrete benefits. Of course anyone that works with heavy duty powered machinery has to understand a little of what that's like (or end up losing a limb or two). A tractor/dozer/whatever isn't like a good draft animal...it will kill you without hesitation or remorse if you let it. So you keep a healthy respect for the danger in mind.

Of course, Remedios' attitude towards everyone else is also pretty telling. She talks a fine line about it being only natural that the strong should save the weak and all that, but in practice that's not what she does. She habitually takes out her frustrations on others and forces them to pick up the slack for her failings (which are numerous). She's the worst possible boss, the bad boss who puts on airs of being morally superior.
