Captain Cadaver said:Considering Paikuhan was surprised by his power when facing him later on, he clearly wasn't as strong as his base's full power. After changing things at the last minute, Toei likely intended for it to just be a burst of Goku's base power and that was all they could change on short notice. Iirc, GT had a few scenes where Base Goku had a SSJ aura, so I wouldn't say it's entirely a one-off mistake.
