I think he means to say it as a version of the character like DE/ROTS Sidious or FOTJ Luke.
Mortal Vitiate would be before the ritual took place in Natemha meaning when he wasn't even a century old and immortal Vitiate would mean that he is much stronger after all the rituals and much more experienced/wiser as he lived for a millennia.

Ok. It's open to personal opinion I suppose. I've seen people argue that Vitiate was hardly weakened and therefore the Hero >>> him, just as I've seen people argue Vitiate was a shadow of his true self and clearly superior. I choose the middle for the reasons stated.The Hero is stronger than the Barsen'thor, who is more powerful than Windu.
Do you see the Hero as higher than Revan?
Hmm I could somehow agree with that I suppose. I would still put HoT in a bit lower position than you do though I think.
Hero has triumphed where Revan failed and against an even more powerful Emperor so naturally she is to be considered superior. The inaccuracy here is that Vitiate would crush reborn Revan if not as easy as the first time. He would hold out for some time but it wouldn't be a great fight. At least that's what I think.
And I think Hot vs Reborn Revan would be a great fight and HoT would win at the end. So there is an inaccuracy in power hierarchy as usual.
Maybe HoT is the antidote of Vitiate and thats why she performed excellently against him. I can't come up with any other explanation other than Vitiate being extremely weakened of course.
