I immediately thought of the Nynaeve vs Semirhage comparison which he apparently "casually" settled after years of debate.

And then added a - "I'm pretty sure I'm right," at the end.

In hindsight, it might have been nothing more than him never paying much attention to Semirhage, as Lanfear was a far more compelling female Forsaken, and since Nynaeve is a female heroine of great strength, he just naturally assumed that she must be stronger than Semirhage. Particularly as there are only 6 females stronger than Nynaeve.

I would now not be surprised at all if Sanderson was in fact wrong on that, and Semirhage turns out to be one of the 6 above Nynaeve.

The point is, we just can't know anymore.

Hopefully the Encyclopedia will eventually settle these issue, once published.
