Honestly there aren't much in the way of disadvantages from being Feared until it's also associated with other social traits that are less advantageous like "Hunted by inquisitors" or "Watched by the FBI" where losing the Social Regard is the price you pay for evading your enemies. The exception would be a roleplaying thing where a lonely Feared just wants to make a friend or lover without the distance that Regard creates.
