So ultimately, you end up with dishonest scoundrels in charge sometimes, when honest, "confessing scoundrels" might actually be more "worthy."

The only reason this is a problem is if you start from a paradigm where church callings are based on worthiness and the higher you get the more worthy you get. I think it's more beneficial to lose this paradigm than get hung up on why unworthy people are getting promoted.
