Not to mention Luceno's comment that Plagueis would ''undermine'' TPM Sidious, whose feats are heads and shoulders above Satele's as well.
I guess im not going to sound very original when I bring up Satele Shan literally crumbling a mountain, but to be fair it is one of the strongest arguments in her favor. In a combative sense she throws around overwhelming Telekinesis quiet casually. Also she is extremely gifted in foresight, and telepathy. Satele may have less "Feats" But the feats she does have speak miles.

Satele's destruction of the cliff was after gathered energy from the lightsaber she absorbed prior to unleashing the burst.

If you read the book fatal alliance, she is shown casually crushing large droids into balls. Being able to throw around the sort of energy that she did against malgus is not beyond her, if shes given a few seconds to gather her energies. Right now your just actively trying to undermine her power
No one is undermining her power, but Plagueis disintegrating half a dozen armored assassins equipped to deal with Force practitioners while two hearts down and nearly unconscious is quite a bit more impressive than crushing a couple of droids.

Quite often it's absorption. Tutaminus users are known to sometimes use the power after blocking it. Not all cases.
However, the energy of a lightsaber is.... very little next to what she just did anyway. It's not like it could have contributed much.
When following names are in a thread:
1. Luke
2. Yoda
3. Plagueis
4. Caedus
5. Sidious
It is automatic win for these individuals. All logical reasoning goes out the window. It doesn't matters how impressive the opponents are, they just don't have a chance. 🙄

IMO, Satele can make this a draw if not better. Much like Plagueis, she is prodigiously talented in the ways of the Force, a great duelist and can even block lightsaber with bare hands.
Plagueis has disintegrated 6 armored Maladians with a force wave, held Palpatine in a chokehold, and overpowered Tenebrous's telekinetic grip. This is better than shattering stone and crushing droids.
Plagueis has turned bones to dust, and set an entire field ablaze with his lightning, which are greater feats of destructive power than anything Satele has accomplished.
Plagueis has punched through armored torsos, smashed skulls with his bare hands, moved at speeds akin to both blaster bolts and streaks of lightning. These are far greater feats of strength an speed than anything Satele has accomplished.
Not even mentioning his immense durability/endurance via his physiology and heart-stunning, midichlorian manipulation, and more-- he outclassed Satele in every fashion.
