Yeah Buff Buu's power increasing past Super Buu helps prove my point. You apperantly dont listen. Kid Buu's power decrease because Good Buu was still in there.
Fine, I can see that you're having a hard time understanding. So I will used numbers to help.
To start with, Goku fights Fat Buu in SSJ3, later we find he could have picked him apart without to much trouble so lets just use these two as a base for the rest of the characters.
SSJ3 Goku
Powerlevel: 200 (Goku's base powerlevel: 200/400 = 0.5)
vs.
Fat Buu
Powerlevel: 100
Now then, Goku teaches the fusion to the boys in hopes that they would beat Buu in his stead to become Earth's future protectors. Gotenks can't beat Fat Buu unless he's got SSJ so it should look something like this.
SSJ Gotenks
Powerlevel: 150 (Gotenks base powerlevel: 150/50 = 3)
vs.
Fat Buu
Powerlevel: 100
Now Fat Buu becomes Good Buu but releases Evil Buu who overpowers Good Buu to absorb him. Goten and Trunks enter the ROSAT to train to beat the newly formed Super Buu. During their training they gain some more power and learn SSJ3. The fight ensues where Gotenks is forced to use SSJ3 to escape the ROSAT and confront Super Buu.

Gohan: “…That was dirty, you bastard…You ingested the two of them into yourself…”
Boo: “It’s your fault. You were stronger than I, who should have been the absolute strongest…When I sensed your distant presence, I started up on this strategy…In case maybe, just maybe, there was anyone stronger than myself…Then I hit upon it: if I absorbed that ‘Super Gotenks’ squirt I was fighting at the time, then no matter what kind of guy appeared, my throne as the strongest would not be shaken…”
From this we know Super Buu is stronger than SSJ3 Gotenks so the fight between Gotenks and Super Buu should look something like this.
SSJ3 Gotenks
Powerlevel: 1,600 (Gotenks base powerlevel: 1,600/400 = 4)
vs.
Super Buu
Powerlevel: 1,800
Following this Gohan arrives and Gotenks gets absorbed because Super Buu see's Gohan as a threat so he can be the strongest again. Later Gohan gets absorbed so Goku searches for Vegeta who he senses just arrived from Otherworld. Goku convinces Vegeta to fuse with him. As Vegito they hatch a plan to enter Super Buu and save the boys and Piccolo. They enter and remove the boys and Piccolo. From here Goku makes a point before they plan to leave.

Context: after Goku and Vegeta revert Boo back to regular evil Boo
Goku: “Hehhe~~eh! With this, Boo’s power should have fallen significantly! We’re almost there! See, see: the size of his ki is completely different than before!”
Vegeta: “Alright! Let’s blast out of here and escape!”
Goku: “Wait! Even though Boo has returned to normal a whole lot, we’re still simply no match for his strength! If we go outside like this, we’ll definitely be done in…!”
Lets check this against my math.
SSJ3 Goku
Powerlevel: 200 (Goku's base powerlevel: 200/400 = 0.5)
vs.
Super Buu
Powerlevel: 1,800
It seems to add up, SSJ3 Goku is over 8 times weaker than Super Buu. So lets continue. Vegeta quickly thinks up a plan.

Context: Vegeta grabs good Boo’s pod and wonders what will happen if he pulls it out
Vegeta: “This’ll be fun…Will you turn back into this fatso? Or will you become that scrawny guy? …Either way, it seems that your power will doubtlessly fall below what it is now.”
Boo: “Sto-stop it! Do-don’t touch that! Hands off!”
Vegeta: “Kukkukku…You seem even more panicked than I expected…Apparently it will be quite unfavorable for you…”
Boo: “Th-that’s the only one you mustn’t tear out…! I-I’ll stop being me!”
Goku: “’I’ll stop being me’…?”
Vegeta: “That sounds interesting…Did you really think I’d listen to you?”
Vegeta proceeds to detach the Good Buu from Super Buu to try and weaken him further. They quickly escape as it becomes unsafe to remain in Super Buu's body. Suddenly Super Buu starts to undergo a transformation.
Strength Checker wrote:Chapter: 507 (DBZ 313), P13.5
Context: as evil Boo reverts to his South Kaioshin form
Goku: “H-hey…Vegeta…His ki is increasing, ain’t it…!?”
At this point Super Buu has become his S. Kaioshin form which, according to strength checker, is more powerful than Super Buu. We don't know by how much but I'll just keep it small and say its an extra 200 onto his powerlevel. Now a fight between SSJ3 Goku vs S. Kaioshin Buu would look something like this:
SSJ3 Goku
Powerlevel: 200 (Goku's base powerlevel: 200/400 = 0.5)
vs.
S. Kaioshin Buu
Powerlevel: 2,000
This seems bad for Goku, Buu is now 10 times stronger than him. Now somewhere between him changing from S. Kaioshin Buu to Kid Buu his powerlevel MUST have decreased for Goku to declare that he could beat Kid Buu at full power. Lets check the strength checker once again to confirm Goku's words.
Strength Checker wrote:Chapter: 508 (DBZ 314), P3.4-6
Context: after Boo reverts to his pure form
Goku: “…”
Vegeta: “……Heh…Heheheh…Look! He’s shrunk down quite a bit!”
Goku: “We did it! This way, we might be able to manage something.”
Note: "He’s shrunk" is chidzimu, which typically refers to physical shrinking (like with Bulma's Micro Band) and throughout DB is never used to refer to ki diminishing. So Vegeta's probably talking about how Boo’s body has shrunk. That doesn't mean Boo's ki didn't go down too, but it's not what Vegeta's talking about here.
I have bolded Goku's line, he says that they might be able to manage something. Let's check for his actual declaration of him being able to beat Kid Buu at full power.

Vegeta: “Don’t hesitate for my sake, and finish him off! With that Super Saiyan 3, you should be able to completely wipe out Boo with your ki once you gather it with all your might…!”
Goku: “Ye…yeah…I’ve been thinking of doing that as well since awhile back, but…I haven’t gotten the chance.”
Vegeta: “Eh?”
Goku: “If I want to wipe him out, I gotta gather ki for about one minute.”
Vegeta: “One minute?!”
Goku: “Dammnit~~~If it was with the Potara, I could have done it in one blast. …..Cheh~~~I guess I went and showed off too much. But I thought things would go a little better than this…!”
Vegeta: “…S …So you weren’t thinking of me…”
So somewhere Kid Buu's powerlevel must have fallen by at least 1,825. The fight should be something like this:
SSJ3 Goku
Powerlevel: 200 (Goku's base powerlevel: 200/400 = 0.5)
vs.
Kid Buu
Powerlevel: 175
Now you're telling me that Kid Buu was restrained at this point and that when Kid Buu spat out Good Buu his powerlevel went from 175 up to 2,000+? Explain to me how this happened and why Goku nor Vegeta noticed his powerlevel increase by such a massive amount. The last battle to happen in the story is Base Vegeta vs Kid Buu. So you're telling me its something like this?
Base Vegeta
Powerlevel: 0.4
vs.
Kid Buu(Unrestrained according to what you have said)
Powerlevel: 2,175
