Why not just say "ineffective"? Or "unambitious"? Or "cognitively lacking"? Or "dysfunctional"? Or "inept"? "Poor" itself is a euphemism.

'Underprivileged' has the same number of syllables as 'polysyllabic'. And 'underprivileged' is a compound word of two + three syllables.

No, the goal is for everyone to be privileged, hence the term "under"-privileged.
