Even if they do tend to be an excellent judge of other people's character, it's all about themselves in the end, so I also can't see how a bunch of psychopaths monitoring society can lead to a good thing for the masses.

It should be pretty easy to see how. They made an anime about it. It's called Psycho-Pass. Something about a large quantity of psychopaths given the job of observing and imposing their god-like will on society. They can enjoy their god-like statuses and toy with the masses as they see. In fact, they do do this. It's also not a stretch to believe they would enjoy building their little community like they are.
It's a downside, undeniably. The thing to look at is that the majority of the time the system is doing exactly what it's supposed to do.
