It also has a practical reason since there's a shoot to kill order out on Green Arrow, so appearing in that costume would be much more dangerous until the name can be redeemed.

The ending, in which Adrian maims a guard with a pen and then drives off into the night while whistling cheerfully, makes it very clear that he has absolutely no moral high ground on that front.
