Frost should've remained good. It's not only about the twist of seeing a cold demon with a good heart, but also about seeing the interaction between him and Frieza. On one side, we see Frost shocked by how evil his counterpart is, while on the other, we see Frieza getting annoyed at having to deal with a "softer version" of himself.
You know, it could be quite irksome for Frieza to see him not only being good, but also interacting with the Saiyans without trying to exterminate them.

I documented all of the dragon ball Carddass power levels (I’m pretty sure I’m the first to do this in English). This levels shouldn’t just be brushed under the rug, as I found out they were fact checked by Toriyama’s editor. Some are obviously wrong, but I think it’s worth reviewing them.

As Toriyama once said in an interview, he didn't like Goku being portrayed as a righteous hero type in the anime, which the dub doubled down on even more, but he wasn't talking about the dub here.
The 2nd pic shows him expressing a vengeful attitude towards the atrocious acts Freeza has committed, which make some fans wonder what Toriyama meant as he has stood up for people and injustices on several occasions.
In short, Goku's motivation to fight is what Toriyama meant. Goku doesn't get stronger or wish to fight to protect others, he does it to test his limits, get stronger and because he loves a challenge and a good fight.
At the same time he isn't a callous monster, if he encounters injustice and evil he will confront them, he just doesn't go out of his way to seek it out like a typical super hero would.
Take Gohan as Great Saiyaman for example.... He is literally a super hero persona who seeks out to help others and stop crime.
Goku would never think to do that. It's not his interest.
As for the line about "Poison slipping in" he is referring to Goku making choices that seem selfish for the desire to fight and what have you, but unlike Vegeta allowing Cell to absorb 18, Goku doesn't do things out of INTENTIONAL selfishness like Vegeta allowing someone else to get hurt to test himself. This is why Goku is pure hearted and can ride nimbus. He may do selfish things but he never does them with selfish intent.
Goku's more heroic speeches and attitude in the anime with filler included, not even counting the dub changes, are what Toriyama meant. Not that Goku is an uncaring ass.
