One could argue that they aren't necessarily low-lifes: I'd wager many, many people would abuse such power if they could.

The fact that there may be more of them does not change that they are low-lifes.

Sure, but then we wind up having to broadly categorize most people as low-lifes. Which may be true, but that's all the more reason to construct a system that can survive them, not a system that falls apart when representative human beings are part of it.
