Its call back to S1, when we thought that Bellamy was an asshole until 'his sisters keeper' episode. And generally good lesson in life about perspective.

As fans of the show, we seen Clarke as the hero, and Pike as the bad guy who opposed her. And so many will start any argument by portraying Clarke as the noble, self-sacrificing leader who had to make the tough choices despite her conscience; while demonizing Pike as some sort hateful, intolerant, power hungry warmongering demagogue.. Because it doesn't fit with story they built in their head.

This is true in life, there are rarely good and bad guys scenarios, only two sides with different perspective both thinking that they are right. And it is not until someone like Finn in S1 that tries to talk and see the other perspective that you can start bridging the differences and come to a compromise.
