Saw someone point out another parallel between Marinette and Gabriel, both having an "end justify the means" mentality.
The entire series is Gabriel's example while Marinette has Confrontation(the ep she put a microphone and one-way mirror in the girls bathroom), Animaestro, 99% of S4, the S5 finale, ect
Remember, this is the same show that uses a "We're not so different, you and I" moment not to help Marinette realize the darker side to her feelings for Adrien, but rather bond with Gabriel over how obsessive they are.
Even if the show acknowledged it, it would just be another way to make Gabriel out to be a good guy, because Marinette's good, so why wouldn't he be good too?

The reason why ladybug lied to the world about Gabriel helping her defeat monarch was for a few reasons.
To "protect" Adrien from the truth
To actually protect Adrien from people accusing him of knowing his father was Monarch but doing nothing or worse willingly working with him. Which could threaten his safety
Would have been extremely difficult to explain away Gabriel coincidentally dying the same day Monarch was defeated without the implication that he was monarch, especially with the public being aware that the alliance Rings were involved in Monarch's final battle
The whole point of Season 4 was that Ladybug had to learn to stop keeping secrets from her allies, so why is it now okay for her to keep a huge secret from her boyfriend of all people? And you say it like Adrien doesn't have friends and family who can help him cope with his emotions and grow as a person.
So the public wouldn't even buy Ladybug's explanation that Adrien wasn't an accomplice for Monarch, even though she's in good graces with pretty much everyone in the world?
There were plenty of other ways to cover up Gabriel's death, like saying he was caught in the crossfire, or he was crushed by debris. Hell, just say Monarch was able to hack into the Alliance ring system behind Gabriel's back to tie up that loose end.
