I wouldn't say that's a more apt comparison since Hank got much more of a redemption arc ~~(though he admittedly wasn't "bad" to start, just insufferable)~~ than Skylar did. Walt willfully went all out in his bad choices while Skylar was mostly just left to react to his bs, but he is still viewed more favorably than she is.

Hank has much lower lows than Skylar ever did.

Hank became an outright abusive piece of shit at one point during the series, constantly verbally berating his wife until he pushed her over the edge and triggered her kleptomania.

The worst Skylar ever did was sleep with someone outside of the marriage that Walter had already destroyed.

You know, that's fair.
