Insightful analysis.Moses rejected the Egyptians though, which must mean he had something more profound at his hands, more good. And he was right, because while Egyptians continued their magic tricks, Moses was building something that lasts and would carry over into Jesus Christ.
As I recall the story, it was the Egyptian culture in harshly treating Hebrews that caused Moses to reject the Egyptian way. Exodus 2:11-15
Moses Commits Murder and Flees to Midian
11 In the course of time Moses grew up. Then he went to ⌞see⌟ his own people and watched them suffering under forced labor. He saw a Hebrew, one of his own people, being beaten by an Egyptian. 12 He looked all around, and when he didn’t see anyone, he beat the Egyptian to death and hid the body in the sand.
13 When Moses went there the next day, he saw two Hebrew men fighting. He asked the one who started the fight, “Why are you beating another Hebrew?”
14 The man asked, “Who made you our ruler and judge? Are you going to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?” Then Moses was afraid and thought that everyone knew what he had done.
15 When Pharaoh heard what Moses had done, he tried to have him killed. But Moses fled from Pharaoh and settled in the land of Midian.
