I think that fits actually. Deathstroke's super soldier abilities include the ability to use 90% of ones brain, up from the supposed 10%. With 90% brain activity you could actively tap into your memories and search your head. Maybe they introduce this as an unforeseen side effect that kicks in at a later time, and this factor being what leads him to discover what HIVE did to him. No one likes to get their mind trifled with. I would imagine this would supersede his hatred of Oliver. Slade has a son, Joe, and HIVE took that memory, and all others, away from him. I know Joe didn't come up much in Season 1 and 2 but the cognitive aspect of his mental augmentation could have him seeing things differently this time around.
