If the coal cellar story is just a story, what's the point? Why isn't Spike just a weird guy with an overabundance of peroxide? A redemption story fails the second you say "Well, that all didn't actually happen. He really didn't do any of it. And if he did, it was totally an accident. And it only happened to characters you don't know anyway."
Yes, Spike kinda liked violence. He thought it was fun for its own sake. He still did it. That's the point.
