As you say this is correct, the above poster forgot about this.
Perhaps you can read what I wrote again? Sheriam has felt their potential, but that is in the future. She has never felt them when they were actually at their full strength (Sharina is far from that, and we don't know if Nynaeve has reached there yet).
I think it is a fair assumption to make that this is someone inferior trying to boost themself up, she is trying to make herself sound just as strong as Semi. She fears Semi, but probably does match up well with her having stronger capabilities in some areas than Semi perhaps.
Maybe, maybe not. Semirhage was, on the whole, the much more dangerous person though.
If anything Nynaeve was just fractionally stronger then, and at most has gotten just a tad bit stronger since then, since she was near her max strength at such an early juncture in the story.
Can you give me an explanation why you think Nynaeve was near her max strength? Because there is ample evidence that the opposite is the case.
Semirhage's strength in the Power...

I'll look again tonight, but I'm sure Nynaeve made a comment...

Actually, Nynaeave is far stronger than Moghedian now

To HOLD her. Didn't I make the distinction clear?

Reducing the number of people holding the shield, reduces the strength of the shield correspondingly
