Why does it anger Scar when someone mentions Mufasa?

I thought Scar has some serious issues if he gets angered over someone mentioning the name "Mufasa", to Scar hearing the word "Mufasa" is worse than someone calling him a bunch of swear words.

He's bitter and jealous. His brother is more dominant, respected, and everyone worships him. Scar is the powerless underdog and realizes it.

I also feel Scar feels angered over him being treated like a lesser lion and King to Mufasa as well

Because Mufasa has the better baritone..

I think Scar wishes he could get the same respect, treatment as Mufasa and doesn't want to be reminded as to how he became King.
