* Dorn's literal-mindedness may not just be from Dorn himself. If you read up on the background and workings of the Centurion suits, you'll find that many of them have very powerful machine spirits (read: angry artificial intelligences) that the pilot much forcibly synchronize with and bring under their control. Afterward, the pilot and the machine spirit are bonded together, and the longer the pilot spends linked to his suit, the harder it is for the Centurion's operator to disengage and the closer they get to their machine spirit. Rogal Dorn has apparently been puttering around the Imperial Palace in a Centurion armor for several thousand years, meaning he's likely linked to the AI in his suit to an extreme degree, which can go a long way to explaining his cold, calm, mechanical, literal-mindedness. Plus, it could explain why he gets angry at seeing Lucius smashing desks, because the machine spirit in his armor is getting pissed off at the sight of other devices getting broken.

** He pays Krastodes a genuine compliment when the man vows (and so far has followed) his promise of self-improvement.
** He pays Boy no mind, but that does not mean he is dismissive of the most insignificant being in the entire cast, paying him compliments when they are due, and overall not mistreating him. But he does not pay attention to him most of the time, because the young Serf constantly improves himself on his own volition, doing a job that would terrify most people, taking lessons from Rogal and overall being a reliable person.

Everyone else knows how he would fight and command in real life, but their knowledge isn't applicable because Kitten would normally command a small group of elites rather than a large army of mooks.

The most horrible thing about this is that the Emperor and Dorn probably don't even remember their squabble, but it's kicked off a bloody war... until you realize that nobody in the palace probably even ''knows'' about this war, because there are so many pointless feuds like this on Terra already that nobody would have bothered reporting it to them.
