I love that one episode in Atlantis with the "strategy game" in the Atlantean computer for this. Arguably one big difference is that the Tau'ri were always closer in tech to the places they visited than the Goa'uld et al.
I always took it more as the Tau'ri were never in a condition to control the space around primitive cultures, so they never bothered trying to protect local cultures. You also don't have a utopia economy yet, so the Tau'ri government was far more willing to not worry about societal impacts if it meant gaining access to technology or resources.
As fucked up as that was the show does play it for laughs, which makes it considerably worse.
