The problem in this case is with the plight of the ditch digger, not the value of conscription.

EDIT: also, you left off this bit: "...provided the ditch digger turned soldier doesn't get maimed, killed, or psychologically damaged fighting a war for his elite masters."

You may not know this but ditch diggers also like to have a peaceful life and live to see their children grow up. They value life as much as anybody else.
