This is all theory, of what the developer said, when he speaks of Cloud he may well be talking about speed, but that does not mean its the same with Sephiroth, and it also does not mean hes greater in all attributeshell it could mean exactley what you said "better" but not neccerily greater in every attirbute
Something you have to understand, is that the Lifestream is the source of some physical atributes too. Omega Weiss was that fast, only because of Omega(aka the Lifestream itself). And Sephiroth have control over a great part of the Lifestream.
Pick this fact, add the interviews with the creators, and I think it's obvious what they mean by "stronger".
also who is Aerith, is she powerful? i mean hell she summoned the thing, she must be incredibly powerful magic user? theres still no logic to think just because its powerful, it immediatley has to be difficult to control, its not exactley a sentient force that can attribute its power to getting free or any of that like a lightning bolt cannot or does not think of dispursing its heat through the planet to destroy Earth when it strikes
From what I remember, Holy IS a sentient force. It's decide what is good to the planet, and what is bad to the planet, destroying the later. The humans were bad to the planet(sucking it's life force with their Mako Reactors), but for some reason Holy decided to not destroy them.

I figure it's like opened thing gate to a animal. Opening the gate doesn't require much effort. But once it's open, holding it back can be pretty hard.
That's a good analogy.

to enlighten you all:
there are MANY cases of beings not in the Force in SW
there are beings who even have a concentrated anti-Force defense instinct
however TK'ing something has nothing to do with the thing being in the Force
it be like being hit by Force lightning...you may not be in the Force but you're still getting concentrated electricity shot into your body
It doesn't really matter. Sephiroth don't need a physical body to fight. He is basically the "heart" of the Negative Lifestream. He can attack Nihilus, but Nihilus can do nothing against him.
