Ian Mchdiarmid has basically been handed a character so Iconic that he at first didn't realise it. But as the decades has progressed he has and it's the reason why he's begun to take roles wherever the emperor appears no matter how minor they are because he's realised that he is the emperor. It's his character that he was instrumental in creating. I don't think now that we'll see an emperor not played or voiced by him until he is physically unable to do so as he's now fully recognised that he is both loved and respected for this role.

Then there is the fact he used both the light and dark side of the force to the same extent as palps. then there is the fact he was among the best lightsaber duelists in history. Even Palps admired and respected Revan and his acheivments and bane himself based the rule of Two on Revan and malak.
