If Sidious had been in her situation, and Leneer had been at full strength, I see no reason to believe the same thing would not have occurred.As for Windu dealing with an "all-out" Sidious' lightning "quite handily", in what universe? Lol.
And once again, considering she was able to lock the door successfully it must have been for at least a few seconds. Which is yeah, a feat.
No part of the text indicates his attempt was casual. He held is hand out in a casual gesture, but Leneer makes note of the fact Malgus had put more power into that Lightning than she had ever felt from him previously. It also doesn't described the Lightning overpowering her blades, only that the force knocked them from her hands, that's not the same thing. Especially given how weak she was.
Windu managed to redirect the energy back at Palpatine. Given how easily the Lightning dispatches him afterwards (even with his injury) the lightsaber was obviously doing a lot of the legwork.
And no, since it would take Palpatine a second to react to her attempts, some time for the Lightning to overpower the blade and the fact the Lightsaber would likely stay for a small amount of time while she falls, no she didn't have to tank it.
She may have, but we don't know. So for the fourth time now:
