Ok, that indeed was sabotage. I think "playing risky" would be more fitting.

No, because of many episodes. Lincoln felt overshadowed by his sisters in Making the Case, so he made a video humiliating them to get a trophy for sake of not feeling inferior. In Come Sale Away he wanted to win against them, so he started playing dirty. In Out on the Limo he acted like a snob just to feel better than them. In Ties that bind he wanted to be only child. In Funny Business he stole Luan's spotlight. Kings of the Con is another example of his inferiority.

I don't want Lincoln to be perfect, but likable. Lincoln's flaws were flanderized in some episodes. In the Loudest Yard and What Wood Lincoln do he was uncharacteristically lazy. In Jeers for Fears he was exaggerated to a complete coward. He was too selfish in Linc or Swim, Sweet Spot, In Tents Debate, Ties that bind, Green house, Out on the limo, Mall of Duty, Tricked! He was uncharacteristically stupid in making the case, Sound of Silence, Brawl, kick the bucket list, Pasture Bedtime, a Grave Mistake, Kings of Con.

I noticed that in LH the main characters are jerks too often and suffer more than they deserve too often. Ruthless People is one of the worst examples.

If that's a bad reason, then maybe giving up is premature. However I'll skip Clincoln episodes.
