Abra Kadabra wasn't even evil in the first place, just hungry for attention, turning to crime because it provided him infamy. If they let HR do his popularity project, he'd have little reason to go evil.

His strange ambitions towards Wally, however... He could set up Wally as a rival to Barry, all for a publicity stunt of his own.

Although, maybe he was so eager to leave his Earth Nineteen because people were really pissed off at him.
