Allow delegation of administrator role if that role cannot administer permissions

Why?

Most of my sites have one role: administrator. I would like them to be able to assign other administrators without giving them access to permissions.

I must be missing something, here. What is the point of excluding this role if it can simply be left unchecked if it isn't to be delegated?

Thanks -
