While emperor, yes that bonus is pretty sweet although it certainly does not make one invulnerable. I have 1v1 and killed emperors (and boatloads of former emperors which seem to be extremely common these days).
As others have said, if someone isn't working or doesn't have a lot of real life responsibilities, they can earn it over someone who may be a better player than them but have a job, other responsibilities, etc..
I think that system is extremely flawed. However, it doesn't make a difference to me whether someone has the former emperor title and bonuses or not nor the current ones (since those buffs will not last forever -- they'd have to be taken again). However with all of the complaints and for certain knowing people abuse this heavily from all of the admittances I've heard. Now I'm not going to say "ahh you're not my friend anymore, you do cheap things"... however it's not something I personally would do.
What there should be is an Emperor Slayer line (and title), kill x amount of emperors, get a skill line.. but you can't have that AND former emperor, kind of like WW or Vamp. I'd much rather hunt down people with buffs than spending 95% of my time in Cyrodiil or making sure I always have a scout in there watching for people trying to take keeps. Even on Wabba people boost their teammates to it, there is no true solo achievement to it whatsoever and it certainly doesn't determine who is the best player because I have killed every single one I have encountered at one point or another.
