Yeah, the jedi were branded as traitors to the republic, and Howzer's personality shows that they are still fighting the good fight, and they were led to believe that the Jedi were traitors to the republic

aside from what they were told and believe, I think order 66 and certain orders they have no control with disobeying

I think they can disobey imperial chain to a degree, but if someone like the emperor gives an order, the inhibitor chips overrides personality and they have no choice but to comply

They would have to use one of the contingency orders for the inhibitor chip to kick in. In a comic, order 66 was used against the inquisitors by Jedi remnants who didn't have their lightsabers in hand. The chips have muddied the water way too much imho. From the movies to the final season of Clone Wars and even in Bad Batch, the activation of the chip had a more broad effect on the clones. We see Cody refer to Palps as "My Lord" and not Chancellor. In Bad Batch it seemingly took away the clones personality. Maybe Howzer is a way to correct this or show that some clones are mentally stronger than their brothers? I think a lot more explaining needs to be done to clarify the chip and how it works.
