Dark Jedi - at least - were exactly what it says on the tin: evil Jedi. They didn't need to be anything more complex than that.

With the Sith, though, you expect something more than anti-Jedi. And we got that with the Sith in the Tales of the Jedi comics, who are shown to have a distinct culture apart from the Jedi. Lucas, though, doesn't have a mind for complex things like that; just give them black robes, red lightsabers, juvenile supervillain names, and call it a day.
