Michael wants to be a good person I guess, but has no idea how to be. He does have a streak of mercy in that he prefers not to kill witnesses but that might just be pragmatism as a heist is going to be a lot more seriously pursued and punished if people died than if it all went peacefully.

The cops can be damned hard to lose. And one time I had someone call them on me for no reason too. I parked my car to pop into SubUrban and some woman looking on goes "Stay back or I'll call the police!" and whilst walking away from her she decided to do exactly that. They're also very tenacious in keeping on you and it takes a long time for stars to disappear after they lose sight of you, but I don't really mind it at all because I've never had many cop problems before.
