I know the internet can be hard to translate emotions ... I'm not trying to be pissy, just pointing out that if you aren't going to post quotes to support what you are saying I'm going to call you out for misquoting the text.

You paraphrase quotes/situations to lend weight to your argument, never post the actual quotes when asked, and when I look 99% of the time you've changed the situation from "Merean can match, and maybe more" into "Merean was still overwhelmingly more powerful" ... it's simply an example... you've also claimed "Egwene and Aviendha might match Lanfear" when the quote is "Egwene and Aviendha could overwhelm Lanfear (or Graendal etc).

Back to Merean though... there is nothing saying there are even 3 weaves, much less substantial ones. The quote simply states that Merean has 3 people bound with air (something nearly every channeler we've seen can accomplish with ease) and is still fighting at about the same strength level that Moiraine has. We've seen Rand and others use a single flow to hold multiple people. Merean could be as little as 10% stronger than Moiraine and still pull this off!

But by your own reckoning Egwene must be powerful indeed... she wove 4 threads, one a shield on Shalon (who is pretty strong) and 3 more to hoist 3 women into the air, and didn't even break a sweat! In contrast Nynaeve couldn't even lift 2 large men at the same time ...
