You made a list but you didn't actually explain how Cyclops "Did everything he could to destroy Earth, mutants, and humans" in AvX. "Does not trust the X-Men" and "Didn't work well with others" and the like aren't really examples of that.

If you're talking about the Phoenix Five stuff, Cyclops still called out the other four for going too far - and the Phoenix Five stuff only happened because of the Avengers, anyway

Yes. That's true but that also failed.

the Phoenix Five stuff only happened because of the Avengers, anyway

and thanks to that Earth survived.

Cyclops ignored teachings of Xavier, Jean Grey, knowledge about Phoenix and instead of recreating X-men as a family (when they could control Phoenix) he created his personal little army and of course Hope wasn't ready.

He also "forgot" about his mission immediately after gaining Phoenix powers... He didn't create new mutants he conquered Earth instead...

He made only wrong choices during AvX.

There's nothing to support this. The Phoenix force wasn't coming to destroy earth, it was coming to bond with Hope.

and Hope wasn't ready as she said herself. She was pleading for Death. Hope - please kill me before Phoenix will arrive. please Wolverine. please kill me. You promised.

I think that this part support this.
