Agreed. The tack I would like to see is that any supernaturally evil being
in Hitler's upper command structure supporting Hitler because, well, it
admires him. It's not there to dictate policy or even spread it's own form
of evil (though a light snack now and then is not out of the question).
Like the European generals who came to the US during the Civil War to learn
about the current tactics war, it's there to learn about the face of modern
evil.
