Not sure how you get that out of those passages. “Whoever would be chief among you” sounds like it assumes the possibility of a “chief among you” which doesn’t sound like complete egalitarianism to me. The whole passage is a warning against the misuse of authority, not a rejection of authority itself.
In my view Hitler and Stalin were the leaders of a hierarchy.
Thus, hierarchy=leaders of sacred rites.
By contrast --- if I may pun badly --- Hitler and Stalin were leaders of "lowerarchies."
