Oh, but I can. Let's think, Kenobi has beaten Maul and Opress with dual sabers, ventress has stalemated/could have beaten Anakin and Obi Wan (both of whom are more impressive than malgus/vindican at this point in time in terms of dueling) with dual sabers. But I know your clear bias would write off these feats as well. Dooku is a far superior duelist to Darach, being a peer to the likes of Windu, doing well against yoda, and tooling other revered swordmasters, is far greater than darach's one showing. Also Dooku has a plethora of impressive TK feats, some of which most likely exceed Darach's.
Your entire argument is filled with subjectivity and bias and you are accusing me of the same? Ironic.
We don't know if Anakin and Obi-Wan are superior duelists then Malgus and Vindican; this is your ASSUMPTION. Only difference is that the former two have lot of hype going for them.
Read this:-
"There in the hanger I encountered the most dangerous embodiment of the dark side I have experienced - the man who would later be known as Darth Malgus.
Malgus and his master must've sensed our presence. They landed their interceptor in the hanger entrance, blocking our entrance, and the two Sith rushed to confront us. I had engaged in hundreds of practice duels but nothing prepared me for the sheer ferocity of the Sith. Darth Malgus would have killed me then and there were it not for Master Kao."

Dooku is far superior duelist then Kao based on what? Hype? Kao have shown much superior dueling skill then Dooku actually; Kao was not just an EXPERT duelist with a normal lightsaber but also with double-bladed lightsaber. In-fact, Kao touched new heights with his dueling abilities; he managed to use both normal and double-bladed lightsabers simultaneously in his duel with great precision and speed.

Also, Dooku have demonstrated nothing that puts him ahead of Kao in Force abilities aspect either; Kao tossed a big "starship engine" towards Malgus like a missile which is very impressive feat. In-fact, Kao send Vindican packing like 100 feet away from his position with a blast of power; keep in mind that Vindican was a Sith Inquisitor.
Stop unnecessarily assuming that every new introduction in SW is automatically inferior to likes of Dooku, Anakin, Obi-Wan, Windu and vice versa.

Satele has never done things to match Yoda, like: superior TK (note: satele thing was due to tutaminis), far superior dueling skill, also has mastery over tutaminis, has been said to have mastered most known lightside powers, etc.
Another burst of subjectivity from you:-
Satele have credentials that put her on pay with Yoda:-
1. Unleashed a mysterious Force power which killed multiple opponents simultaneously on moment's notice:
2. Held Malgus (one of the strongest Sith Lords of all times) at bay with one hand and pulled down a giant tree with gesture from another simultaneously:
NOTE: A tree of this size would realistically weigh over 100 tons. In short, Satele performed two tedious tasks simultaneously.
3. Blocked a lightsaber blade with bare hands:
4. Utterly destroyed a large rocky formation:
NOTE: Power of this scale is more than enough to demolish a large building. Large rocky formations are extremely heavy and tough phenomenon in reality. To give you an idea; here is an example of a 340 ton rock: http://s.wsj.net/public/resources/images/OB-RZ496_rock_E_20120228181235.jpg. In contrast, Satele destroyed relatively bigger rocky formation (portion of a cliff itself).
5. Shattered a blast door by just touching it:
6. Blew apart a dozen special hex droids from inside out with a gesture.
The full extent of Satele's abilities are unknown at the moment. She is lot less explored in the lore then some PT era characters but available evidence suggests that Satele is full of surprises.
Also, did Yoda acquired shatterpoint talent? Satele have this talent (check feat number 5 for reference).
---
In-fact, we have yet to witness peak abilities of Satele. So stop underestimating TOR era characters unnecessarily.
