I don't know how this contradicts anything I posted, particularly the refutations of your conclusions.
The FBI team purposefully omitted facts that would have weakened their case for FISA's and then they purposely failed to due diligence on some of their most central and crucial sources.
An objective investigation would have taken all facts into account and would have done due diligence on Steele instead of gleefully accepting his 'facts' which served as the basis for further intrusion. Even after there were concerns they basically just looked the other way to fit their biased investigation. You don't care that this investigation was based on lies? Lies that the FBI team eventually knew about but failed to pull back their FISA's? To you that's ethical?
For example:

However, as we describe later, as the FBI
obtained additional information raising significant
questions about the reliability of the Steele election
reporting, the FBI failed to reassess the Steele reporting
relied upon in the FISA applications, and did not fully
advise NSD or or officials. We also found that the FBI
did not aggressively seek to obtain certain potentially
important information from Steele.
