Yeah. But with so many unknowns, he should have really considered sending Gon & Killua packing. Especially when he started to get the bad vibes. His intentions were nothing but good and probably he considered himself to be playing a part in Ging's grand and inhuman game to turn Gon into another monster, but logically thinking you should only bring newbies, especially underage ones, on a mission where there are no unknowns to speak of and especially no bigger threat to risk unleashing (this was a mission to stop the ants, not to train Gon & Killua, after all). This mission had nothing but unknown factors.
