I removed the claim under “Noodle Incident” about Lenny being implied to be just as ruthless as Mr. Burns, if not more so. What little we saw of Lenny being in charge doesn’t support any such implication. When Homer made a serious mistake, he was apparently sent home to think about it, rather than being attacked by dogs or whipped like Mr Burns would have done. Smithers (who is inherently biased) is the only person who has anything bad to say about Lenny’s leadership. In one case, he says he’s a “bear on tardiness” (which isn’t particularly ruthless). In the other, Smithers refers to Lenny’s “reign of terror” being over, specifically after Homer had mentioned the incident when Lenny had apparently been pretty accommodating to him making a mistake (sending him home to think about it rather than punishing him in any serious way). So this suggests the “reign of terror” claim was likely just Smithers biased judgement (wanting Burns back) rather than genuinely reflecting that Lenny was as bad, or worse, than Burns.
