It likely said absolutely nothing good about Obi-Wan as a person that his first response to feeling that surge of the Dark Side and realizing what was happening was-
Okay his first result was that it needed to stop, right now, but that was quickly not an option and the result right on its heels was that if there was an Inquisitor anywhere nearby they were going to have a problem and he really should have given Malgus a better debriefing before going into public with him.
The Dark energy was physically uncomfortable, casual murder was morally uncomfortable, that he'd killed someone who was being abusive was possibly mitigating and -
He kept his mouth shut until he paid for their transport ship, that he'd fly himself thank you, gotten them on it and set coordinates.
At that point - "I don't think the Empire's Inquisitors would respond much better to use of the Dark Side by an unknown than they would to the same from the Light." Slightly careful.
