A veritable Fields medalist, you are.
Nihilus is out of ROTS Sheev's league.

He's only more powerful than someone who can, though.

Indeed. To labor your metaphor, Sidious would be in the MLB whereas Nihilus is probably off somewhere in Kansas swinging a bat around in his church intramural league.
Traya also says Nihilus can't consume all life yet. She also says that he uses the same technique as the assassins, who use their powers on the Exile and co. just fine but obviously don't win.
Nihilus hasn't ever shown Drain against a more powerful opponent and even against lesser enemies he seems to like stunning his opponents before draining them, which is odd if he can just do it and kill them.
Katarr is a blatantly circumstantial feat given that he's been put in similar situations (TCSWE's various other planets, Telos IV) and failed to replicate it. As we don't know the circumstances leading up to Katarr other than the fact that it was a surprise attack, it's a logical deduction to assume that he benefitted from circumstances not afforded to him whenever he attacked another planet. Or indeed, in a random versus scenario. My guess is substantial time and preparation.
Last time Merchant made a RotS Sheev vs ancient Sith thread, every Vitidiot ended up having their pussies wet clamoring to a supposedly ground-breaking revelation of how Sheev sucks and the ancients shall reign paramount once more. In 30 minutes, said revelation had been twisted in Sheev's favor and ended up backfiring spectacularly, raising Sheev's ranking near-universally to the amusing result of AP trying to save face with its usually moronic vomit that somehow passes as an argument these days.
I wonder if something similar will happen this time as well. History is prone to repeat itself.

AP is wanking how the ancient sith spirits were beating up Palpatine:

Funny how Palpatine was utterly overwhelmed by Ragnos and a few other, lesser spirits and nearly died. Requiring a bacta tank to heal himself no less.
*Azronger turns the feat around and notes that a weakened Sheev basically came close to solo'ing Korriban*
AP suddenly thinks his own feat is meaningless:

Originally posted by SunRazerNot really, given Nihilus did the same thing he did on Katarr to several other planets. He's stated as having consumed more than one planet, not just Katarr. In fact, iirc, the phrase "web or worlds" was used at one point to describe Nihilus' eating habits. I'll have ti find the specific quote for that though.
