I was thinking in terms of selfish towards those of us who were watching - the great WIndies side were never less than ruthless, but almost always exciting to watchThat's "ruthless" rather than "selfish".
In fact, the reason in my opinion why he never liked Steve Waugh is because he had all the worst personality features of his brother Greg.
Steve Waugh was a self-centred cricketer who was intense and brooding and would win at all costs, and learned from Allan Border in 1989 in England that you didn't have to enjoy the game or socialise with opposition, just grind them into the dirt. He did not care about bringing through the next generation of players, which is why Darren Lehmann, Justin Langer and Damien Martyn who were all 5-6 years younger saw their international careers put on hold while a fading pair of Waughs played on and on.
Even Mark Waugh doesn't particularly like Steve Waugh. And he's his twin. He hated the way Steve Waugh turned an enjoyable game into a war.
