”Darth Vader will become more powerful than either of us” as well as Anakin being the chosen one and all shows pretty clearly it was intended for him to be the superior in strength. Yet after episode III Sidious purposely gives Vader a painful and poor quality suit that would be dangerous to replace to ensure he would never be surpassed by him. Why the change in plans? Why would it matter if Vader were slightly stronger if he were to be massively stronger in the first place?
Palpatine ran afoul of a fallacy we call "End of History". He felt like having finally gotten the revenge the Sith had striven for for thousands of years he essentially deserved to be the last and keep Vader as his eternal lapdog rather than chance the cycle of succession repeating.
