It seems in the first, he is just an oblivious pawn to the scheming of those below him, but in the second they tried to turn him into a replacement for Ronny Cox's character Dick Jones (DIIIIIIICK JOOOONES). And what's with the non-ending, where he just gets away?

I think it also might have to do with Faxx's rise through the OCP echelons being a noteable plot thread of the film, which means she either plays The Old Man like he's a fool, or The Old Man stays in control and acts like he does in the film, meaning Faxx is doing some evil scheming *beep* but as long as it delivers a powerful new cyborg cop, who cares. And well, he got something personal out of her too.
