Perhaps. Feudal Japan for example was at times quite orderly, but had such problems. I also suspect the honor/face issue ran deeper into Roman society than you suggest, as well as the rest of europe. I think the anecdotes about safety of trade, the overall stability of rule, etc. have more weight overall.
