We live by POWER Sitharensor. You can play the word games you want, put what masks you want over it, but it's all power. Whether it's magic, strength or money - all of us - faerie and human, live by power.
And, you may have missed it, us Sidhe aren't as powerful as we used to be or as powerful as we think we are. Do you want people to test that power? Do you want them to grow unsure about it? Believe me - they won't like it either. You Seelie preach stability - well your stability is BUILT on a foundation of power. If they don't think you're powerful you lose everything - and maybe deserve to.
So that's our mask Sith - a mask we ALL wear. The mask of power - you just play political games to cow your 'lessers' we challenge them and remind them what they face.
