Yep.

"I LIKE the universe. Some of my best evil took place here. I'm not going to destroy it unless I get REALLY bored."

He's talking about preserving the universe or not preserving based on his own enjoyment, and majorly upsetting the status quo in his favor.

Girard was working tirelessly and obligating his family to do the same, ultimately lowering their quality of life to preserve the universe at all costs, although I can see how that's exactly the same as "wouldn't necessarily destroy the universe if given the opportunity." I see your point.
