Barring the fact that there's no indication whatsoever of James's feelings on the matter past "Lily thought he grew up finally" and "he fought against Voldemort instead of joining up", how does a hypothetical negative feeling about Snape's shitty allegiance reflect poorly on James?

Because there's no suggestion he ever actually felt bad for being a bully in his childhood, and given that a lot of bullies grow up and... Don't really feel sorry about what they did and brush it off as, "I was a kid then, I'm different now" reflects poorly on James because he was the bully as a kid.

It doesn't mean jack shit to Snape's allegiance other than retroactively "justifying" it.

There's literally no suggestion that he DIDN'T feel bad, either. As anon at the top of this thread pointed out, he died young (protecting others and standing against Voldemort). We have no indication either way. Assuming that he never felt bad about it is just bad faith.

'He fought against Voldemort instead of joining up'

Kind of a low bar for James, tbh.
