I think everyone who's been around on epicmafia for a while has wondered this at one point or another. Welcome to the club, HelsG.

Quick internet search:

Wikipedia
In a traditional rural society, a miller is often wealthier than ordinary peasants, which can lead to jealousy and to millers being targeted in bread riots at times of famine. Conversely, millers might be in a stronger position vis-a-vis feudal land owners than are ordinary peasants.
Maaaaybe this was lucid's thinking?
