The Seanchan justice system is probably the best and strongest there is. Nobody is above justice and everyone gets it.
Unless, and this is a BIG unless, you are the ruler, ie the Empress. So what you are defending here is not justice but rather what you see as a benevolent dictatorship.
Oh, and you better hope that your baby daughter isn't born with the Spark or she'll be taken away to live life as a possession.
The Seanchan order comes at the price of a slave-nation mentality. One necessitates the other. Remove the slavery and order will begin to break down as people realize the Empire is not always right.
Not that the feudalists in Randland are better, but to say Seanchan society is perfect is blinded at best and delusive at worst.

Most annoying, unlikeable, incomprehensible, irredeemable character in the books.

I disprove your argument with one word. Coincidentally, it is a character.

I guess I should have said she and Egwene share positive personality traits

You meant to say Graendal used Arad Doman as her base & destroyed it, right?

Yes - and the Seanchan Empire is ten thousand times worse than a White Tower-like organization

On that note, I think she is a bit uncanny because she sometimes seems a bit insane
