Whatever the apparent flaws in James Levine's character and however far his behaviour might have fallen below the standard which should be expected, he did, almost single-handedly, return the Met (particularly the orchestra) to the high standards that it had habitually achieved in its heyday. It's a tricky one, separating artists from their character defects and I'm not sure there's much mileage in trying to do so. Look at the hoo-hah that blew up when Barenboim tried to conduct Wagner in Israel. When one sees both sides of an argument... :-\
