Were you in RD's position, if your friends were nearly killed because of somepony's ambition to be the best resulted in reckless actions and disregard for the safety of fellow pegasi, I'm sure you would've told Spitfire of that. Plus, RD, noting on how far ahead they were, reluctantly acquiesced to Lightning Dust's idea only after remembering Spitfire talking about LD pushing herself. And like RD noted to Spitfire, being reckless, no matter how effective towards the task at hand, should not be rewarded.

And there's a difference between being inconsiderate once in a while or on accident and continuous inconsideration. Also, similar to the story of the Sorcerer's Apprentice, LD came up with the idea of the tornado with no thought on her and RD's combined wingpower affecting the tornado's power. In this case, the end (being a Wonderbolt) does not justify the means (endangering others' lives).
