That there is far more to strength in her quote!

I'm saying Egwene knows that there are multiple things at play:
1. Moghedien is stronger than her (d'uh, I've never said otherwise)
2. Moghedien hates her very personally (presumably for things that happened off screen)
3. Moghedien might have one of the Male FS with her
4. Moghedien is vastly more skilled than Egwene and as such she would be able to kill her with out anyone even knowing she had been there.
You guys seem to think that because she mentions strength in a comment that it's the only point of the comment. I don't think RJ was that ham-handed in his writing. It should be "intuitively obvious to even the most casual reader" that RJ was giving us a lot of information about the situation... hell we already knew that Nynaeve was the only woman around with the Strength to face a FS, what's the point of repeating it?

Skill not Strength is the key that and the potential that another FS was with her

and you are fixated on simple strength to the exclusion of everything else

Yes, but to think that RJ put that much effort into it is improbable

The Tower sample is skewed allright, but to the upper side of the strength range...

It may sound silly, but did you look at One Power values in the Wheel of Time CCG?
