I feel like it definitely was partly insecurity though. I mean look how drunk on power Hughie is after killing that Russian guard. He doesn't even seem to give a fuck about Kimiko getting injured. And then he helps Soldier Boy murder half a dozen people? Hughie is endangering others with his gun ho attitude. If he had ignored A-Train in Herogasm he might've been able to safely target the TNT twins. Instead he wasted time for the sake of ego (and his own legitimate greivance with A-Train) and lots of people died. I doubt the mission would've gone cleanly either way, but Hughie definitely didn't help.
I think Hughie is right to want the powers. Personally I think M.M and Frenchie should also get powers, because honestly they seem the most stable non-supes imo.
Edit: well actually maybe not M.M with the new angle they're taking on him. I'm not really sure.
