You apparently fail to grasp the difference between mostly machine, and a human who can use the force freely to empower himself. Add to the fact that Vader was toying with him and then underestimated him, and you don't really have much of a case for Luke. Even if we assume for argument's sake that Luke had more strength than Anakin(impossible since Anakin was conceived of the force and therefore would have the greatest ability to increase his strength), then you have to understand that Anakin by ROTS was the greatest Djem So master of all time, while Luke didn't even learn a form yet. And unless you think Luke could take Dooku(no, he can't), then stop arguing nonsense.
There are plenty of failing's in your argument. Let me point them out to you.
1. Vader's machine body is in many cases an ADVANTAGE rather than a disadvantage. It offers him a knew level of physical strength that he did not have as Anakin. It also gives him some level of protection against lightsabers strikes.
2. Vader has an extra 23 years of experince. Vader has more than double the training time and experince that Anakin had. He knows significantly more about the Force than Anakin.
3. Anakin has never been proven to have been concieved by the Force.
4. If Anakin and Luke had the same potential at birth (which is very possible) then ROTJ Luke has MORE potential than ROTS Anakin, because Anakin is missing his whole are where Luke is missing only his hand.
5. Anakin was never stated to have been the greatest Djem So master of all time.
6. ROTJ Luke in his state of rage could probably take Dooku. Why? Because Luke took down Vader, who is stronger than Dooku.
7. When was it ever shown that Vader was toying with Luke?
8. When was it ever shown that Vader underestimated Luke? And going on this whole 'underestimated' argument, in the ROTS novel Dooku underestimated Anakin.
So there you have it, Luke wins.
