Oh, the costs of this are very much real, but this action specifically is not one where pandering to the conservatives is bthe worthwhile choice. We'll make it up to them in the future somehow, even if only to avoid getting a negative rep.
As Linqin said.
Our political stances mandate opposition.
As long as we keep it respectful , so will most of them

I don't particularly care for annoying conservatives more than we already do, but the other option just isn't as interesting.

The Wang clan has the highest number of Moderate followers that we know of, with an even split between pro- Weilu and Imperial and just 10% considered Imperial Conservatives and no Weilu ones. So within their domain there's not really many conservatives of either stripe to be offended, especially with the Wang's ambition being to blend Weilu and Imperial practices. And I don't really think Wang Chao is going to be his clan's emissary to the other regions.

At the end of the day, you don't win support by plying the middle.

Now we just to identify a suitable co-host to help Wang Chao with the more subtle social aspects and to become our eyes and ears in the sect after we leave. Xiulan lite who likes Wang Chao might be a good fit for the role since she would be well suited, motivated and not too important to consider it a chore.

What are the chances that we get some spirit involvement? Wang Chao needs a spooky mentor now that we're leaving.
