Amp and outlier aren't exclusive. An outlier, by definition, is a feat that is inconsistent with other feats, by either being much stronger or weaker than normal. Sindel's best feat is while she was amplified by Shang Tsung's soul and powers. That feat is much more powerful than she's ever shown to be on her own, which means that Sindel soloing half of the MK roster is inconsistent, which by DEFINITION, means it is an outlier.

If it was a power Sindel could easily use and normally use, it wouldn't be an amp, say Character A is a city-destroying villain that has a power that makes them stronger, and uses it regularly in tough battles. THAT is an amp, as it is something that Character A uses often. Now, imagine Character B walks in, just a normal human living their normal lives. Then suddenly, BAM! Character B destroys Character A in a fight, with no explanation. THAT is an outlier, as it is something Character B has never been shown doing before or since.

Now, Sindel while not using Shang Tsung's soul has never shown that amount of power again, before or since, and has NEVER been shown doing it again. In fact, after becoming a Revenant, she lost to Jax i.e. someone she had previously KILLED while using Tsung's soul and powers. Soloing half of the MK roster is something she has never been able to match again, meaning that it is inconsistent, meaning that BY DEFININITION, it is an outlier.
