I personaly don't care if you some does kipping or strict..do your thing to stay fit.
But to make up some weird formula that almost make it look like doing 16 kips are better than doing 8 strict is complete nonsense. Sorry
The power output/muscle activation needed for a strict is so much more than a kipping (let alone butterfly) And not even to talk about the specific sticking points in the movement that gets skipped almost entirely with the kip momentum.

It's almost as stupid to say:
A: Sprints 100 meter in 10secs
B: Uses a catapult to sling himself forwards 150m and sprints another 50m for a total of 200m in 10secs.

B: double the distance, so poweroutput!

In many ways you kinda can't compare kips with pullups. The start and ending point are kinda the same, but everything in the middle is completely different.
If your goal is to improve strenght, stick to strict.
Kipping will improve (shoulder)mobilty and surely adds a cardio aspect to your workout, but I would never do them to increase strenght (or as you say poweroutput)

Maybe I misunderstood the info you tried giving me and in that case would love to hear more.
