The Wikia Editor wrote: Arno's exile is, in my opinion, a good indicator of how the Parisian Brotherhood differed from other contemporary Brotherhoods. The Colonial Brotherhood would have probably been far more approving, or at least less harsh, of Arno's actions. It should be noted that Arno was exiled primarily because he did not consult the Council before taking action, such as killing target without their permission, as well as the fact that they felt that he was primarily driven by revenge. The Parisian Brotherhood was far more controlling and reactionary, at least during the time of the French Revolution.

Off-topic, but it's also important to note the different approaches different Assassins have towards vengeance and hatred. The Italian Brotherhood were patient with Ezio and seemed to treat it as a natural human emotion that needed to be overcome over time. Sure, Mario scolded Ezio for the fury he vented at Vieri's death and thought it was wrong, but he saw learning to move past that as a learning process. Later, Ezio noted that his teachers never gave him the "answers", but guided him to move past these wrongs over time. He learned to let go of revenge through experience. Shao Jun's Mentor Wang Yangming was a bit similar in that regard. He reminded her revenge was wrong but didn't hate her for it.

On the other hand, Kang pretty much saw it as an unforgivable crime, abandoning Zhang Zhi for it. Kang is pretty similar to the stereotypical Jedi, who sees just being hateful and acting out of hate as evil. The Parisian Brotherhood didn't see one act of what appeared to be vengeance as the final straw, but they did have a stricter stance against it unlike the Italian Brotherhood. I think this may be because the Parisian Brotherhood were more orthodox and established, hence more rigid in their ways. They weren't radical like the Colonial Brotherhood, but they really left an impression on me that they were your typical high school teachers or college professors who aren't corrupt people, but have a harder time listening and understanding the younger people.

You're right, the Colonial Brotherhood probably would have been far more approving, but it might've been because they didn't see vindictive methods as wrong to begin with. I mean it's not like Louis-Joseph got expelled for using excessive force and bombing the Homestead (seriously wth? -_-), and they probably did not mind Kesegowaase's punitive raids.
