Yes, I agree with it. However, most of them being shown onscreen are just "hahahaha I'm gonna rule the world" (Sauron for example). There might be an impression about their motivations, but the point is it's never being translated onscreen. All we see in them is just "wanting to rule the world". Father on the other hand has an expanded backstory on purpose, and seeing his past makes his motivation makes sense. Father is basically Hohenheim without knowing to stop.

And yeah, I agree that one can see himself/herself in his place.
