In other words, weaker than AotC Anakin in his own fall.

What are you smoking?

Aryn Leener (along-with her companion) dived from the height of highest clouds towards the surface below. She shielded her companion with a barrier throughout the ordeal. And upon reaching the surface, she literally halted herself and her companion mid-air to land safely.

Anakin Skywalker jumped from a building towards a speeder below.

The two examples are not comparable at all.

High school physics?

Correct. Anakin doesn't even need to slow himself down to tank hitting a moving metal airspeeder at terminal velocity, timing it to hit a single one out of a sea of potentially billions perfectly, despite having no indication of where this speeder even was. Aryn, meanwhile, had to stop herself first, and then awkwardly landed while injuring herself in the process. The marginal burden of having another person to land <<< the huge extra burdens in Anakin's situation.

The fact that she dived from the "highest clouds" doesn't make it any harder for her since Anakin was falling more than long enough to hit terminal velocity anyway, but it does make it easier by giving her more time.

Why do you keep going on about this when Anakin is not involved in this match-up?

This is Aryn vs. Satele.

This is a stupid argument because Malgus does the same thing in their first duel. He jumps off a speeder like 30 stories up and lands without slowing himself. In fact he actually smashes Leneer and the ground with the Force, pelts her with all of the debris from that while launching a falling overhand chop at her while he's landing as well. Leneer obviously tanks all of that without much effort and then has a close duel with him, proving that she's comparable to him.

So who can land better doesn't establish anything because Malgus shits all over Anakin and Leneer went toe to toe with him.

Aryn takes a saber engagement, but Satele'd take a ranged Force contest. I'd go Aryn arm since Satele at this time is more of a blitzer and utilizes her TK when she can. She'd go down in a decent but clear-cut fight, given she wouldn't want to destroy the Temple with her TK.
