Do you rank Reimu as evil because she killed fortune teller?
If so, then you're contradicting yourself because she would have killed a youkai. He may have been human and had no evil intentions but by your definition, youkai can not be anything but evil. He's not an exception because at that moment he was a full fledged youkai.
If you want to argue she's evil because of her part in the system, she's doing so unknowingly and she's never actively directly helping youkai, she stops incidents when they happen because that's her job. There's also no telling what happens if Gensokyo collapse. People can move between it and the outside world just fine, but what happens if Gensokyo collapses? Do everyone, including humans, die? If so, keeping Gensokyo's current order in place is morally justified, as killing x number of good humans (I'll spare you including the dieties, most of which are good in nature) to kill all evil youkai is not good.
If you want to argue she's evil because of her greed, well bitch has to make a living and she can't be fucking around owning a shop when her. So she needs to make money off her job, which is to protect the village from youkai and also quell villager anxieties. You can't say she's scamming people in the latest whalehu chapters either because she doesn't think the writings are harmful on their own (they aren't, they really are marks in the end) but she gives peace of mind to villager and possibly prevent a new youkai (ie pure evil to you) from being born which is her job. She just didn't realise they were marks for theft, but her job is supernatural incident solving not a detective, you can't call someone being stupid evil.
