I can understand you reasoning, but this is how I think of it.

If anything, the most messed up shit Ainz did in Volume 7, was set up the workers to invade the tomb. This being all Demiurge's idea to lead anyone who they thought was wary of Ainz's and the inhabitants of Nazarick presence into a trap to test the tomb's defenses. Specifically, the people who they thought resurrected Clementine and Khajit or the ones who brainwashed Shalltear. This is where Ainz's ruthlessness begins and ends in my honest opinion. He was opposed to the idea in the first place by the way. Now, from there, he went on to ask the workers who chose to take up the job, what they were doing it for. All they had to say for themselves was that it was for money. Basically human greed. Didn't know what they were getting themselves into, but couldn't be helped. After that and from the point where they approached the tomb and chose to go further in it, after finding enough treasure to last a lifetime for a regular person, after considering all the dangers they could face in the tomb, they still chose to go in. Every single one of the groups except Heavy Masher, basically would have died a warrior's death, if the leader of Foresight didn't mess it up for their whole group. Ezyra got off lucky by battling an opponent he deemed worthy. Greenleaf were lucky and they died swiftly. Herrekan screwed it up for his group by playing with Ainz's emotions. I mean, what did they expect entering someones domain. An intelligent monster at that with a horde of surbodinates. Try to look at it from Ainz's prespective as well.
