Even when we take a step aside and wonder why Tats is getting disrespected like this despite his talents, it does bring into question what the Yotsuba value since there are a lot of areas where Tats check the mark.
Note that the other Yotsuba butler seen in ep 7 was vastly more respectful to Tatsuya (even bowing to him something Aoki said was beneath him as a butler of the family) and is apparently in a position that he thinks nothing of questioning the head of the family if it is a good idea to leave things as they are
