I rather thought that was the point. Spike is a hero now. He's in the know. Where as before he gave insight into personal matters--"Death is your art"--now he has opened his eyes to the world around him. His insight is no longer restricted to just the people he cares for, who he's obsessed with. I think it fits perfectly with his entrance where he's shown being a detective.
Spike has always been chaos, the jester, the rebel, the symbol of free will--but he's more than even that.
It's why Whedon calls him the most evolved character. He's still evolving now.
