Lost Souls are more dangerous because they are very good at moving into places where you don't want them to be. This hurts your mobility options which is doomguy's strongest weapon and defense. So you get surrounded by these modestly damaging things, you die, you run into a lost soul instead of dodging a rocket, you die, or the classic you tried to shoot a pain elemental with a rocket launcher just before it sent a flaming skull in front of you, you die.

At least they wind up picking fights with each other often, which gives them something to do for awhile.
