You keep saying Dooku was just surviving against Yoda and not actually putting up a decent fight. Based on what? I could turn that around and say Yoda was just surviving against Dooku.
And For GOD's sake! If Jinn was on Yoda's level when Maul stomped him, then Maul would have been Sidious's Master not vice versa. And Padawan Obi-Wan wouldn't have lasted a second against him.
If you can't see how ridiculous that is then your beyond help.

You would be right to do that. In which case it proves nothing for either of them.

I acknowledged that possibly only Yoda out of the Jedi could be considered a notch about Jinn. But anyways Maul was almost undoubvtably better sabe rpractitioner thn sidious anyway so im not sure what your point is, sidious holds the advantage in the force however whic is how he would controls him.
And Padawan Obi-Wan wouldn't have lasted a second against him.
Only time Padaan Obi fought without help he was enraged and fighting well beyind his bailitys.

And if you can't see how ridiculous what you is saying is, then you have nothing left to give me... except your death. See you in hell pal after I kill you.
In just sabers? Doubt it. As said Maull when starved and having not slept for over a week, almost defeated Sidious in a lightsaber battle, and this was early in his apprenticeship.
He has the better saber efats, he performs better on camera, and is a saber specialist who mastered the double bladed lightsaber, the most demanidng form of all.
But he didn't defeat him. Sidious was merely training him. It was not an actual fight, because if it was Sidious would have killed him. It was simply an extreme boost from extreme rage. This is a well documented thing, see: Luke vs Vader.
Sidious would have slaughtered Qui-Gon and Kenobi, much faster than it took for Maul to fail to do so.
Sidious is his clear superior, with Mace Windu requiring to boost himself to merely draw with him and needing Shatterpoint to win, and fighting equally with Yoda. He also massacred 3 Jedi Masters (stated to be 3v of the best bladesbeasts in the Order) in mere seconds. Sidious is far faster than Maul and he will dominate him in a saber battle.
Sidious has also defeated Maul in sabers, casually. When Maul had backup.
Personally? I wouldn't even put Maul on Dooku's level. Before or after TPM.

Technically Maul defeated Kenobi with help of Savage. With Savage being hurt Maul wouldn't be able to get enraged to muster that Force push, attachments give a lot if power. 😄
Making Anoon Bondara, the best swordsmen in the order, feeling humbled when sparring with him? Being on par with Mace Windu as a swordsman? All this, btw, while not even a saber specialist but a consular.
Leanring to become a force ghost unaided and making prime Yoda his padawan?
