I think you're overestimating how smart he is or at the very least underestimating how much his emotions can cloud his judgement. I don't see true malicious intent in any of the actions you listed in your OP.

That
s just bad writing. The Tysha reveal was crucial indeed. In no way is Tyrion a villain, he is the very personification of The Fat Mans favorite concept of writing about "the human heart in conflict with itself". -

In the show I think it was Tywin presiding over the miscarriage of justice that led to Tyrion being convicted of a crime he didn't commit that was mostly responsible for Tyrion's ire. While I suspect that Cercei and Shae were more responsible for his conviction and of course Littlefinger and Olenna for the murder itself, Tywin was the one Tyrion held most responsible, or at least was within crossbow range when he had the opportunity.

Book Tyrion is a hateful man hell bent on revenge who wants to rape his sister in the last book. The Tysha reveal makes no difference.
Long may she reign
