If a villain commits one or two acts of murder, and they have no redeeming traits, they are outheinoused by the one that committed 12 acts of murder and stands out as a serial killer. I understand the logic there, but I don't see how that applies to the villains I proposed. Hitler, for instance, was as destructive as he possibly could be given his level of resources. Also, once one's bodycount gets into the millions, I feel that disqualifying a villain because he has one or two million less than the other guy rings hollow. But Hitler for one did as much damage as he feasibly could given his level of resources.

Similarly, Dottie Underwood in Agent Carter: there is no villain in the entire MCU at her level of resources that's crimes are on the level of killing a whole theater full of people and then trying to do the same to an entire city. Consider this: If Dottie and her boss had succeeded, they would have gotten the entire population of NYC to kill one another. That is worse than what Loki attempted in Avengers despite his having better resources, tech, AND superpowers. Dottie Underwood's overall crimes are far worse than what people in-setting with actual superpowers have done. She should meet the heinous standard based on that.
