Does Lucius have any worth, after all?

Answer (optional):
Yes, Lucius has some worth, as he is able to save himself by running away from the cook, fattens on good food by surreptitiously filching choice portions, and even survives being sold multiple times. However, he is also considered worthless by some, such as when he is sold to an old gardener due to being worn down by hard work.
