The 20 year sentence guy could be construed as not necessarily ambitious - it was made clear that he was a career criminal, but this was one particular crime they could't pin on him.
Which would go with the Harry parallels, since Harry originally got his idea of making his son into a vigilante out of frustration with genuine criminals not being condemned in court.
he was I think going in there in order to threaten the guy or without fully understanding what he was going to do.
No. He did have a garotte with him, and gloves. I agree that he didn't ritualise the murder, but he went with the clear knowledge he would kill this man. And as I said, he had about a million other options to remove this particular threat. This was as unspontanous as it gets.
