The Sith gain power faster than Jedi precisely because they embrace emotions and exercise limitless free will instead of suppressing feeling. Their downfall isn't a lack of raw power but a lack of control over it—exactly like installing a hyperdrive in a ship that can't structurally handle it. The Jedi take longer to hone their abilities with more discipline, meaning the speed of power acquisition and the durability of that power are inversely related.
