There are in fact a lot of indications that Moghedien is significantly weaker than the other female Forsaken.
To name a few:
Moghedien and Nynaeve are exactly equal in strength at a time when Nynaeve is still far from her full potential. And yet, it has been confirmed to us that at full potential, Nynaeve and Semirhage will be virtually equal in strength.
This means that the difference between Nynaeve's partial strength at the time when she is still blocked and untrained in Book 4, and Nynaeve's full potential, which still had not reached as late as Book 7 or 8, is equal to the difference between Moghedien and Semirhage.
Furthermore, we know that above Nynaeve's ful potential strength, you still have Alivia who is considerably stronger than Nynaeve, as well as Sharina.
It is therefore clear that there is a big gap from Moghedien to Semirhage's level, and then a somewhat significant gap from Semirhage's to Lanfear's level.

The real question is - What percentage of her full strength did Nynaeve achieve by Book 4?

I find that unlikely

Easy question for you: Based on the evidence, what percentage of her strength was Nynaeve at in tSR?

Alivia may not even be stronger than Nynaeve...

There's always room for error, and in general I agree with some of your placements...

There are a number of comments from Q&As that shows that this is possible and more complex.
