Because what do you mean by him always seeing himself as an incomplete being? Satan's inferiority complex is probably second only to Levi's among the seven brothers; he unconsciously compares himself to Lucifer, to the point that his world is mostly just Lucifer. He is trapped in a tragic loop where every choice he makes is a direct reaction to his creator rather than an expression of his true self. Does what I do resemble Lucifer? Does my attire resemble Lucifer? Does what I say resemble Lucifer? He has actually long since escaped Lucifer's shadow, building his own distinct identity through his love for books, cats, intellect, etc. But he refuses to acknowledge himself because he views his very existence as an accidental byproduct rather than a whole soul. He is so insecure and overthinks that even a single comment from someone else (like when Raphael says Lucifer and he resemble each other in an uncanny way) triggers self-doubt and rage, it has been to the point that any perceived similarity feels like an existential threat that erases his hard-won individuality. I feel like Satan's greatest enemy is not anyone else but himself. Lucifer is not holding him back, he is the one who shackling himself to the phantom of Lucifer.
