Actually, the moment one becomes bureaucrat, one can freely promote/demote self as admin. The admin itself is separated from admin.

Perhaps just to be easier to understand: Staff  <=> Founder > Promoted sysop > Bureaucrat > Admin

Where XXX > YYY means XXX can promote someone or self as YYY freely. But to promote someone else as XXX same level will requires pooling. Also wikia staff position can be anywhere although under most dire conditions, they above or same as founder level. So respect them when they active on y'er wiki. The staff itself also has ranks too.
