Maki was never negged in the fight against Sukuna. They went back and forth and Sukuna even praised her a few times. Maki also did not use her weapon, which is a huge part of her arsenal.
She got a good hit in when she used Yuji as a sword, which shows that that is her forte. Now imagine if she used her sword which bypasses physical toughness and hits the soul directly.
Yuki never pushed Kenjaku to extreme diff. Yuki, Choso and Tengen fought Kenjaku together and even with all of that Kenjaku called it a fun warm up
In a one on one fight Yuki alone is not pushing Kenjaku that far. The only troublesome ability would be her block hole one, but that's hax that punches above her weight class.
Who wins between Yuki and Maki? I am not completely sure. I think it's trickier between them which is why in my original post I said that it's between them. I think Yuki could be given the benefit of the doubt for now, with her special grade status and overall portrayal.
