I actually DO think Galadriel is supposed to have more innate power than all those princes with the exception of Feanor, who is the most powerful save Luthien. I also think the text supports Elrond as well being stronger than them.
Nothing in the text has ever suggested Fingon and Turgon had more power than Elrond or Galadriel. Even Fingolfin's greatest skills are in battle.
