It was very personal and edged on revenge, both in his method and in his choice of venue--in full view of the public, at a party Brian had for him, surrounded by Brian's friends and semi-family and people who knew *exactly* what they were witnessing.
Michael says that to Justin too, that he "didn't have to humiliate Brian in front of everybody like that."
I don't buy it. Michael saw what happened and he understood what was going on, but only because he was privy to the circumstances. First of all, we know Michael is the only one of the regulars who knew what happened because he's the one who tells everyone else. And it wasn't like Justin and Brian had some big blowout scene. All that happened was Justin talks to some guy, looks at Brian standing some distance away, Justin leaves with the other guy.
Random tricks witnessing this are going to think, if they think anything of it at all, that it's just business as usual. That's not public humiliation, it's actually really low key. As opposed to, say, the rose tearing, ring throwing, and door slamming of 3x07.
