Even royal bloodlines have a hierarchy. It should be pretty obvious that any capable bodyguard would give priority to a King over a Prince.

The real truth is, Lion-O is at fault for the whole fiasco. He made the decision to jump head first solo into the group of 3. Tygra and Cheetara of their own free choice chose to assist him after he told them not to bother.

Lion-O's decision was very reckless and bad. This choice was not made with sound logic, wisdom, or planning but on pure emotion. He still allowed his personal issues with his teammates to cloud his judgment.

I happen to think that while his responses to Tygra and Cheetara were emotional, his decision was acceptable. He reasoned that freeing the lizards was the only way to keep to the goal of uniting all animals and keeping up the pressure on Mumm-Ra. The ThunderCats had already taken down two lizard battalions in the episode and Lion-O did not know that Kaynar and Addicus would be there.

This was the same pure emotion for choosing to go up that path which made them vulnerable to attack, his team mates got captured, and led to Lion-O getting killed.

So practically the show actually punished the King for his reckless decisions.

Whether Lion-O was reckless or not is another question. You are dodging the real issue, which is Cheetara’s decision, which was emotional and tactically suicidal.
