I think Lexa turned out to be, as the story continued,  not a woman of principle.

She betrayed both her "mantras", which by her own admitting were very important to her:

"Love is weakness" - she let herself be completely enthralled with Clarke, thus putting herself deliberately under her control and rule, which a good commamber should never do! No wonder that Titus was so worried and decided to act. He saw the outcome coming, the tribes would not listen to her anymore and rebel, because in the end she would not be a stable leader. The didint take the sacrifice as her real responsibility.

"Blood must have blood" - she decided not to attack at the final momemnts before Mt. Weather and get her revenge on about 20 years on terror and oppression. From which I understood she left the mountain as a coward, took the easy way out - because she knew probably inside the mountain she would lose - her and her grounds, not being that familiar with weapons and methods of Mt. Weather, where she was probably right...

And if she would lose, and even survived, she would definetly been taking of of the throne.

So when deciding she thinking about her immediate situation and herself - then doing something for the far ahead future of the grounders, when maybe after a hard fight, she would free all of them and the next generation of the terror and kidnapping of Mt. Weather after all.

I not against that decison - I just not understand making it for anything else what it is, expecially with the continuation of the storyline.

She couldn't have known that Clarke and the group were so capable, they would take care of "the problem" on their own....
