Moiraine will have to succeed in establishing her dominance primarily through the force of her personality. But among Aes Sedai, inferior strength in the Power will make it all the more difficult to establish supremacy.
Being stronger in the Power is a pre requisite. Using that to hammer down her dominance will then be up to her. Nynaeve cannot do it. But Moiraine could - if she had Nynaeve's strength.
Hence, starting off with say double Cadsuane's strength will give Moiraine a huge advantage from the word go.

Nynaeve gets no respect from Caddy at all. Yet Daigian and especially Soriliea do, despite being waaay weaker than Nynaeve. What does that tell you about the woman? Seriously, read the series sometime.
Who will Moiraine come back as?

she won't be more powerful because there's no need for her to be more powerful

Agreed. Moiraine would want more knowledge to gain power, not just more power *NM*

These aren't theories, since you don't write much at all in any of these, nor use much deduction *NM*

This town ain't big enough for Moiraine AND Cadsuane. So Moiraine has to be more powerful than Caddy

Ya. Super-Mo is really going to scare her when the most powerful channeler in the world doesn't. *NM*

Didn't they say in New Spring that Moiraine's potential is stronger than Cadsuane?

Rand fired Caddy. The position is open. Nothing for Mo to fight Caddy for.

That's before Rand had his "buddha" experience on Dragonmount. He now loves everyone...

Not outmuscling, but outsmarting. Should not be any difficulty whatsoever for Moiraine

As you like. Your definition of "choice" is a rather loose one, though.
