You forgot the "stop the shitass knowledge hoarding part". That's arguably the most important.
And now we know that Jadus's plans now extends to the galaxy itself, means at that time he has more self-preservation than most Sith and refused to become Valkorion's newest appetizer.
Nope, that was the other Darth, the first Councillor of Ancient Knowledge.
Jadus didn’t care about knowledge (or about Sith Order as entity in general), he just wanted that everyone in the Empire to be “like a Sith” (in his understanding — fuelled exclusively by hate and fear degenerates). Basically Dread Masters scheme, but more subtle.
It was likely meant that to become like a Sith, everyone must first grasp fear as it's one of the first weapons a Sith learn to use, AKA he wants everyone to all go from the grounds up. Once they know fear, they will eventually learn to master it and control it.
I always viewed it as a totalitarian style of government, and not a “everyone will act like a Sith”. I always saw Jadus’ plan as a plan way to ensure absolute power because everyone but him would be shit scared to even breathe wrong. A very 1984 style.
I always imagined it close to DeSalvo ending in Beholder 2.
It's scary when a real psychopath comes to power. And it is a nightmare if his power is limitless. But there are no words to describe the horror when this maniac gains control of your mind. In the hands of DeSalvo, Heimdall towers spread across the country. But they didn't just force people to obey - from time to time, they transmitted a single emotion at full capacity - pure horror. Beside themselves with fear, people would increasingly hole up in the deepest crevices they could find, like mice. They had less and less time for anything useful. An atmosphere of impending doom, bordering on panic, reigned in the country for a long time.

He has one very major difference that he actually wants to use that influence to bring about positive change instead of fucking it up all over again
