All Sith can do that to some extent, as is specifically noted in the text:
“You have a special gift. You do not just feed on the raw emotions of your foe; you gorge yourself on them. You feast on their primal fear."
Scourge's ability is uniquely powerful.

Good find. That undermines Scourge's chances significantly. Maul is more skilled and powerful; Scourge is more experienced. Maul takes this with moderate difficulty.

Well Bane does it without it being noted as anything unique. That Nyriss specifically notes that Scourge's "special gift" doesn't just draw on emotion, it gorges himself on it strongly suggests that the lesser version of it isn't anything special and is decidedly inferior.
