I know. Its just annoying, who came up with the fact that azmuth desided not to have it in the omnitrix. Seeing new ultimates by ben would be sweet. and how does albeto go ultimate if the ultimatrix was destroyed. Oh well, the ultimates are appering so thats all that matters, meaning they were not wasted, hopes Ultimate Big Chill apperes! You don't understand Azmuth's character. He would never create something that has a greater potential for destruction.

I am not. But look at Azmuth's characterization across the franchise, especially in Alien Force & Ultimate Alien. It was made clear in AF that he intended the Omnitrix to be an Ark of the universe, saving backup DNA of every sapient species. Further on in Ultimate Alien, we learn he created it to atone for his earlier creation of Ascalon, which is probably powerful enough to rip apart the universe. It's pretty clear he's a pacifist. As the Ultimates practically embody combat, he'd naturally despise them.

And the Omnitrix could destroy the universe only if it fell into the wrong hands (or if it was damaged by strong energy waves, but that was the prototype). I agree that's kind of excessive, but it emphasizes more that Azmuth was not interested in having his invention be used as a war instrument. Azmuth even stated himself that the Omnitrix was created to allow beings to walk a mile in the shoes of other life forms, so it's not really a weapon, nor was it never intended to be. Considering Azmuth's original intentions for the Omnitrix I sometimes question why it was specifically intended for Grandpa Max, or why he only manufactured one.
