It's kind of poetic justice. The Pandavas did not have their father and Bhishma became a father figure for them, especially Arjun and Bhishma I guess share a beautiful relationship.

That I guess was the other reason for Duryodhan's anger

Till the time Pandavas were not in scene, he was the beloved of all. With Pandavas in picture they suddenly became more important for Bheeshm since they needed a father figure

Watched it

This gave him a humane character arc, he didn't want to kill people he loved and the writer gave him that Virat war scene to show that he could easily repeat that but he didn't want to

I connect with Duryodhana on some level like this one you have mentioned, that's why I never disliked him
