In one of the new comics revealed that the process that brought him back had an unexpected defect, which limited his control of the force. This also why he was decaying so badly.
Lol but seriously, I can guarantee the writers didn't think it through. I'm sure they realized at some point when they blended the drafts together, they didn't have a believable way for the heroes to beat Palpatine, so they killed 99% of his brain cells so he could lose. Lol, this is the same movie that put plot points into Fortnite instead of the actual film.
I think they could have made his defeat more his fault. Like, his personality.
Like, the Dyad overwhelmed him because it was meant for two people to share, not just one to have for themselves. So the final "battle" could just be Rey trying to survive, and in the end, the Dyad's power would end up overwhelming Palpatine and destroying him in a way that he couldn't come back from.
