Because you need to be able to reliably instill great passion in every apprentice you teach or they'll be impotent Dark Side users. What can you do more reliably? Teach someone to love deeply and truly or make them full of fear, hate, and anger? The guys who went for negative emotions could teach far more apprentices of any power and, over time, muscled out other kinds of Sith. Of course, they're all loonies, but you must admit they regularly produce incredible force users.Yeah. Had that discussion just recently. There's nothing in the code that says you need anger to make it work. Merely passion. I'm very passionate about writing, it doesn't anger me. Quite the opposite. So why would things need anger or hate to function when calm rational could work just as well?
At least, that's my theory.
