The umps usually give a warning before tossing someone, like if a batter is hit, each dugout is warned, then ejections. When arguing with an ump, I'm sure early on in the exchange he lets you know you should knock it off.

Unless you say the magic words. Baseball is the only sport (maybe soccer at times) that arguing with an official is tolerated though.

How does this exculpate the ump from escalating the situation and not doing his job like he should?

So umps can be arbitrary so long as they offer a warning?
