I fail to see how the talisman would be the equivalent of a fresh body in terms of spirit preservance capabilities. Didn't Muur wish to take Celeste's (and later Cade's and Krayt's) body precisely for that reason? Or am I just remembering it wrong?
However naturally he need a living host to channel his powers through, which is presumably why he sought out powerful conduits.

And Kun had an entire planet rich with dark side energy. Doesn't mean he was as powerful as his living self, as sources have noted.

You just conceded that a living body is better than a talisman for channeling his powers. So Muur > Spirit Muur, no?

Frankly its impressive that he still existed at all.

Yup. Jedi Academy Training Manual says that Sith Spirits are only weakened in a sense that their powers cannot affect the physical plane, but that can be circumvented if they have a conduit(ala Kun/Kyp, Celeste/Muur, Vitiate/his voices).
In other words, if their powers have a type of physical channel, any hinderence of being a spirit is basically removed(besides the lack of a physical body). Not only that but they can logically draw on the power of their hosts, as well.
