When it crosses that line, the person’s very-much in my bad books until and unless (and that can be a big if, ’cause some people really will compromise their integrity just-to spite you) they try and find a way of coming back from that low, and it sticks. At that point it’s not about, for me, whether they have good traits or not. Sacrificing your integrity to heinous limits just puts a dark cloud over whatever’s good about that person to me.

I 100% agree with you about disliking someone if you feel like what they've done is really bad, or that the bad outweighs the good.
Because after all it'd be disingenuous to go through life and pretend to be cool with everyone's bad traits.
