What hampers is that cult leaders and cult leader advisor are often two personality shapes, one could not be the other (unlike let's say a vizier and a king, as the king may often be forced into the throne and the cult leader often builds the herrschaft)https://twitter.com/erin_nerung/status/1150434759123886081 …

the reverse may apply as well when it comes to self-loathing (probably why the depressed and confused thing as part of getting into a cult) as in "i suck so this must be the only role for me" although case you pointed is more interesting in the sense that it can breed leader envy
-
people getting motivated by being more (in the hierarchy) for their hate of being what they should and not for the desire for the position itself, although those may be not that common, otherwise cult form would not be so "easily" repeatable

that's probably often the case, and I'd add the importance of degree here as well - the more damaged, the less it's "not appealing" and more "this sucks ass" as anyone who's ever dated someone like that knows, the higher degree the more likely they'll be trouble

which is an annoying problem in this case as people with damaged self-images are usually the best suited to be members in the first place (why cults are usually clusterfucks)
