They are indeed heirs of the kings men. Most of them died... 99% of them died. You act like the books (and Tolkien) specified everything... No. I take real life examples, like Africa, where no nobles actually left really at all. If so few nobles were there, the only people to escape the downfall were Isildur's household. And also, if you do dark deeds your 'blood' starts to count for less and less - seen by Orcs not being immortal, etc. Dark deeds have nothing to do with bloodlines... It takes away the 'noble properties' of long life, etc. Which then take away the general excellence that seems to go along with elongated lifespans. In short, there's no bonus that isn't negated.
