Retconed? Why? It's not even a canon anymore.
For no reason? I have my own reasons. Movies and TCW are some kind of determinant. If someone will show a far superior (or even superior) feats to any: Yoda or Sidious - the most powerful practitioners of light and dark side of the Force- , I'll treat it as a bullshit. That's my own right, and your is to disagree with me. But I'll not change my mind.

Mace's TK showings in CW cartoon are also superior to Sidious' from the movies. Nihilus' drain showings are also superior to anything that other Sith Lords have ever shown. Sometimes, that kind of "feats" means nothing.

Yep we have to powerscale.
Although feats are important, can't go by feats alone.

So you're ignoring it because you think it's superior to what Yoda and Sidious would be capable of? Even I don't think that. It's not a bullshit feat and while you do have the right to ignore it if you want, I have the right to criticise you for doing so for shitty reasons and to not take you seriously.
Oh god, Sidious was able to speed blitz a 3 high level Jedi masters. That's a great feat. He could levitate a few pods simultaneously and throws them onto Yoda, fine. He shown a nice lightning skills.
But - for example - Nihilus was able to hold an entire spaceship by TK. He was able to destroy the life in the whole planet by his voice as I remember (am I wrong?). He was able to destroy many Jedi masters, while being many kilometers away from them.
There is a lot of examples with Vitiate as well. As I said, movies and TCW are my powerscale - of some feats are far above those which I can see in the movies, that's a BS for me. You can ignore me, I dont care man. Or you can just discuss with me a fights between guys from the same era - then it wont be problematic, I guess.

Tobin: This ship... is it his weakness? It should not exist, yet it cruises the darkness between the stars. He tore it from the mass shadows of Malachor, along with his fleet...that is a measure of his power.
Canderous Ordo: This ship is barely holding itself together. The structural damage should have destroyed it long ago.
Tobin: He holds it together.

Nope, it's just an exaggeration of the same scale, like we could see in old CW. An exaggeration =/- logical feat. I'm glad that shitsources like DE aren't a canon anymore. On the other hand, it's a pity that some great materials like "Republic" or Luceno's books are not a parts of canon too ;/

For the love of god; Sidious speedblitzed those three Jedi Masters because they didn't use Force speed nor expected that Sidious would spin-attack them. That's one of the reasons Windu kept up with him: he had the opportunity to access the Force speed power. That's the reason why even Maul couldn't see Sidious when he fought him alongside his brother; Sidious Force-dominated him and didn't allow him to utilize the Force speed power.
That's why Anakin couldn't see both Windu and Sidious in the office room. Because he wasn't accessing the Force speed power. That's why Leia couldn't see Luke and Sidious' fight on the Eclipse when they were too fast; because she wasn't accessing the Force speed power.
