It takes 2 people to make the great man that Aral remains. He was cracking, Cordelia's font of honor saved him. Perhaps the duo-as-one saved all Barrayar, Kormarr, and Serglier (sp?) for where would they be without the honorable regency and Gregor's upbringing. Its the Great Man looking at who makes him.
