No, duality is boring. Everyone’s good deeds are intertwined with his evil. If God we’re like that he would just be a super powerful human.
What’s really interesting is a purely good God whose purity and goodness are simultaneously what we all desire while being beyond our comprehension. What makes Satan so interesting is that he’s so hopelessly and fully selfish and evil that he’s reduced to a cunning rage against God whike knowing that he’s fragile and powerless compared to him and bound to fail.
Modern people only find dualism interesting because they’re weak and practical. They lack the imagination to appreciate something purely and overwhelmingly good or evil.

Alexander the Great

1 Maccabees 1:1-4
>After Alexander son of Philip, the Macedonian, who came from the land of Kittim, had defeated King Darius of the Persians and the Medes, he succeeded him as king. (He had previously become king of Greece.) 2 He fought many battles, conquered strongholds, and put to death the kings of the earth. 3 He advanced to the ends of the earth, and plundered many nations. When the earth became quiet before him, he was exalted, and his heart was lifted up. 4 He gathered a very strong army and ruled over countries, nations, and princes, and they became tributary to him.

Daniel 8:5-7
>As I was watching, a male goat appeared from the west, coming across the face of the whole earth without touching the ground. The goat had a horn between its eyes. 6 It came towards the ram with the two horns that I had seen standing beside the river, and it ran at it with savage force. 7 I saw it approaching the ram. It was enraged against it and struck the ram, breaking its two horns. The ram did not have power to withstand it; it threw the ram down to the ground and trampled upon it, and there was no one who could rescue the ram from its power.
