Peak power "by definition" is the √2 (which is 1.414) times the RMS power as you say but is NOT twice RMS power as you also say. Calculus proves this, what math are you using?
A lot of heavy weather seems to be being made of this...
My statement does not contradict itself; you seem to be confusing power with amplitude. What calculus are you using to derive your (incorrect) conclusion?
