The problem is living long enough to get to become a Magos. 
Technically a techpriest could be considered a Magos as soon as he hits one of his last ranks (Magos Errant, Magos or in the case of Mechanicus Secutors: Magos Militant).
But it will differ from group to group if they actually go on the rank names or not.

Yeah, to a large extent you don't need much to help out with that. Players are always eager to amass power and wealth.
This thread, I feel I should reiterate, is "What are you looking for in Ascension" and I said what I was looking for in Ascension. I have no problem with you wanting what you want out of the book. You're also mis-representing my position; I don't expect FFG to cater to my whims and they can release books full of fluff all they like, such as DotDG. I bought it and like it, but I don't use it all that much. IH, meanwhile, sees use every session, for one thing or another. And as I also said, I don't think the imbalance, if any, is as large as you're making it out to be.
My point being, I'm looking for some things, and people were saying "Oh you can do that yourself, what you want is stupid, we want more of that!" And to my mind, that's ludicrous because I can respond with "Well if I can make up galaxy spanning plots in the margins of my Econ notes, why can't you?"
Now, about those pesky Inquisitors...
I am saying that there isn't any real formal power structure consistently applies throughout the Inquisition. Sure, another Inquisitor may try and stop your Inquisitor, and I mentioned such things or pointed out relevant text from Lexicanum, but that doesn't mean his badge has a higher level of authority than your badge. It's complete autonomy from the rest of Imperial society, as long as nobody else gets too irritated and decides to kill you off. As I said, they do whatever they want *unless someone else makes them do otherwise*
And I don't think you read all the way through my post, because I specifically cited relevant text about the Inquisition having a higher level of authority than the High Lords.
Who said we all wanna play inquisitors.
I personally would love to have stats for/be able to stat out Inquisitors so we could do Cadre runs, ya know, the group what is the Inquisitor's personal investigators/mooks/whatever he/she needs? Just the idea of running around the sector with Skane or Vaarack is cool enough for me.
Officio Assassins are tiny handful of elite killers trained from childhood and in theory only deployed at the orders of the High Lords of Terra and monitored by a branch of the Inquisition. In a universe full of political favor trading where powerful politicians are almost above the law and Inquisitors ignore it when inconvenient, some Assassins end up in stranger places than an Inquisitor's retinue. And that's just the official assassins. The Inquisitor game mentions that some Inquisitors can arrange Officio training and gear for their best agents. If he's trained from birth to kill like a Vindicare, performs the same tasks in the field as a Vindicare, had his skills evaluated and polished by a Vindicare, and equipped like a Vindicare what is the difference? An elite killer with the same skills, abilities, and gear as a shrine assassin is a shrine assassin for all intents and purposes. Even better from an Inquisitor's point of view, the Inquisitor already owns him and doesn't have to worry about accounting for the use Shrine Assassin X should higher authorities start getting curious.
Seeing the little hints of love for Thorians in the RH, I'd love to see a full writeup for a Living Saint in Ascenction. It would probably have to have a "ticking time bomb" factor like Daemon Vessel, in order to make the character memorable but prevent him or her from dominating the entire campaign. FFG is very good at making those useable and interesting, and I'd love to see how they would handle the concept.
Oh, and stats for a Throne of Judgement. I'm not really into the tabletop, but that sounds like the most awesome thing ever.
And in general, some emphasis on both how badass and at the same time self-defeating the Puritan mainstream of the Inquisition can be. I first wanted to see a Saint depicted after reading some stray fluff about one being basically executed by an Amalthian Inquisitor because he feared the changes the very-evidently blessed individual might cause.
