It doesn't actually matter whether you like or dislike the comparison. The point is that a comparison can be made: which was the most extraordinary servant of evil? Or should we bring Ungoliant to the game, or Gothmog... Or if we want to go to a more specific choice: which one was the more extraordinary servant of Sauron: Draugluin, Thuringwethil ot the Witch King? I mean it is possible to find a common ground for these comparisons even if some are easier or more natural than others.

But you just can't compare existence (or the lack of it) to any existant (or non-existant) thing because existence (or non-existence) are the conditions by which you can make a comparison in the first place...

And thus, especially while speaking of extraordinariness, the two fight in the class of their own.
