Well demonstratably, an Exile who was nearly in her prime as of K2, is stated to not stand a chance against the remnant life energies of Kressh in his tomb. That's an even higher statement of superiority than Nihilus gets That alone is evidence.
Then there's the fact the SWTOR:E has Darth Nihilus below all of the Dark Lords in the Valley on Korriban.
I'd be remiss to point out the rest of the indications since you're absolutely adamant that they're meaningless.

In many ways Darth Maul was an exemplary acolyte. His loyalty was unquestionable and unshakable; Sidious knew that, if he were to command it, Maul would sacrifice his life without a second’s hesitation. And his skills as a warrior were nonpareil.
Given the only reliable comparisons you can make between Maul and Kun come through Luke, who is demonstratably more skilled than Maul. I really don't care if Maul's possibly > TPM Yoda. Though, I doubt that.

I’m not sure why this comes across a big surprise. Nihilus is a one-trick pony, Traya isn’t too special and Sion’s best feat outside of his pseudo-immortality is destroying a bacta tank.

If the Dark lords in the Valley are the most powerful of all time then they are also more powerful than Kun, you cant just make an exception for your favorite character lol

the quote you are referring to which states the sith in the valley are the most powerful, would also apply to Kun, the quote its self is clearly false given that we know of Kun's massive superiority to Sadow and in turn Pall, however Pall is one of the Sith in the Valley so that quote would imply Pall > Kun, which we know isn't true. so if you are gonna use that quote to say Valley Dark Lords > Nihilus then you cant make exceptions for Pall > Kun or Sadow & Nadd > Kun. and that's clearly not true

Well yeh Kun will have lost a lot of power and Skill being trapped in his 'uneasy slumber' when first coming out of his slumber he is significantly weaker. yes, but youve failed to include the part of that first quote that states Kun grows far more powerful, as a spirit recently awakened he is obviously going to be weaker than his living incarnation, but then Kuns spirit is constantly growing until he is powerful enough to contend with Luke Skywalker in power terms, by then he definitely has surpassed his Living incarnation
He has been constantly growing since his awakening and feeding off Kyp's hate. 'Still not ready' is implying hes growing towards that goal which we ultimately see him achieve.
Go ahead and provide those 8 more sources but ultimately all of those are referring to the version of Kun that has just woken up from a millennia of slumber and 'Needing to restore his lost reserves' and not the version of Kun that has just grown 'far more powerful' after feeding on Kyps hate or the verison that just defeated Luke Skywalker
