Imagine you are reviewing away at the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. And you get caught up in a wheel war between conflicting admins. Effectively, under the scenario that any admins can remove reviewer rights you would have the situation that no non-admin reviewer could EVER review the article. I'm sure you see this. This is not a new thing. We sign on more admins to take care of the backlogs, not to get into conflicts. Giving them more conflict-creation powers is not a good thing, it's a bad thing. Those people who are to grant or remove the reviewer right, need to be at a level *above* the "backlog cleanup crew", and "fight vandalism" people. Because that level is too fraught with article-space-conflicts, and additional content-effecting powers would just tend to create more of that, not less.
