Failing to abide by that could simply lead to replication within the phagosome and hence cause lysis of the immune cells. Macrophages can get their phagosomes acidified to pH level of ~1.5.

Social Darwinism really ought to be called "Spencerism," after Herbert Spencer, who began such thoughts.  Spencer and Charles Darwin were rivals, not allies.
