Darth Plagueis isn't benefiting from anything here. His benchmark is restricted to being a Sith Lord with natural life. Now dry those tears like you often say.

Vitiate deemed Sith teachings as archaic at one point and embraced a new identity after that - Immortal Emperor. He created a new philosophy of limitless power and faction as well.
Characters are judged on the basis of their actions, not on the basis of biased notions of fans.
Originally posted by S_W_LeGenDUhuh, sadly the source material doesn't have an expiry date. So I'll await proof that Vitiate has been retconned into no longer being considered a Sith Lord by the history books before dismissing them. 🙂
Their isn't a source that covers his entire story arc in proper. Sorry. 🙂
Until then though:
"As evidenced by those few Lords who had managed to perpetuate their spirits after physical death-foremost among them Emperor Vitiate, who was said to have lived a thousand years-the ancient Sith had come halfway across that bridge."
"An ancient Dark Lord of the Sith named Darth Vitiate destroyed all life on Nathema with a ritual designed to grant him immortality."

Beni you don't understand. He's the Dark Lord of the Sith Pureblood race, not a true Sith Lord. He has redefined the Sith, he was just once a Sith Pureblood and it obviously only refers to that and nothing else.
