One must also ask: is a pulpit Rabbi better than a simple school Rabbi? Is a kohen better than a levi? is a levi kollelman better than a yisroel kollelman? is a yisroel kollelman better than a kollelman who is a ger? is a man who learns 4 hours a day better than a woman who doesn’t learn at all? Is someone who can learn well better than someone with a learning disability?

What is the relationship between a superficial or hereditary societal hierarchy structure to individual worth, effort and purpose?

Complicating the question will make it easier to answer: since the answer of who is “better” is impossible to give in olam hazeh.
