Some feel he is more than a match for her here

What are your thoughts?
Yeah, Sidious best TP feats include casually mindraping the some 20 billion population of Byss, mindwiping millions/billions of people to hide a star destroyer on Coruscant, mindraping Vader, and twisting DE Luke so thoroughly to the dark side that the latter forgot his own name. So gauge him off those, I guess. 👆

If he's got enough telepathic power to mindwipe 20 billion people at once then he should win.
Almost mindless under the oppression of the Emperor's dark side influence, the people of Byss find their life energies constantly leeched off during the Emperor's vile machinations
Could the Emperor's power through the dark side of the Force have been sufficient to compel thousands or millions of people to forget having seen the Lusankya being buried?
The 2nd is confirmed to have occurred in the New Essential Chronology.

Ehh? You may be overrating the value of a nexus here, one IIRC fashioned by none other by The Emperor himself. Heck, Palpatine's been stated on more than one occasion as being the embodiment of the dark side and a force nexus. His death above Endor actually left a force nexus.
And Palpatine's inferior, Emperor Vitiate, while a weakened spirit was able to mindrape the populace of Ziost, a population including civilians and force users alike. So I wouldn't say such a feat is outside of Sheev's capacity, tbh.
There's also long Pre-Prime Palpatine and Plagueis shifting the balance of the force towards the dark side via sheer willpower, (though this involved intense meditation over the course of a few months, this is a universal cosmic power we're talking about, here).
I mean, he wasn't even on the planet. This was a process he carried on for roughly two decades, slowly siphoning the energies of the entire population to fuel his immortality. The nexus more likely than not did help, but their telepathic subjugation is still credited to, "The Emperor's Dark Side Influence."

Mindwiping millions on Coruscant to hide a Super Star Destroyer? Force imbalancement pre-prime with Plagueis?
2.) Had lots of prep. Was a shared feat with Plagueis. Took a LONG time. Wouldn't help him at all against Cassandra.
You're digging.
How fast can she fully take over someone's mind that has strong tp?
Because Pal can crush her whole body into a bloody pulp instantly.
In other words, say Cassandra outclass Pal in tp by a decent margin. But Pal is strong enough to resist (or fight) the tp long enough to crush her into a bloody pulp. Mindraping millions of people all at once should buy Pal at least a second.
