It is my belief that that the application process is designed to select people who are allowed access to the extremely powerful and abuseable Armory without using it for a personal gun stash, and not designed to select players to be a "super special ultra captain that's more captain than the captain", which is what I think the slow expansion of HoS powers is turning the job into.
The reason that the hos has veto powers over execution isn't because they're a special player, but because they can't be a traitor while the captain can. This makes the HoS a stopgap against a corrupt captain ordering his targets executed, and doesn't represent precedent for him having veto power over other situations
