HP is unimportant. It's all about torque. Also, some stage 2+ guys have roasted stock clutch...
My car would almost never hold on launches after being stage 2+. I was almost always unsucessful so I asked Piggie to try, thinking maybe I was doing it improperly, and sure enough it didn't hold for him either.
I'm not here to convince you of anything. If you want to go straight RS4 clutch, go for it. I'm just warning you that it's not as cut and dry of a decision as you may believe.

I believe you, I just think that I should be ok. I'm at stage 2+ now which should put me at over
100 ft-lbs more than stock torque and my clutch still holds fine. I think I'll be alright, but hey when it turns out I'm wrong, I'll be sure to post here so you can humiliate me

furthermore, if one significantly lightens their car, there is less stress on the clutch, so it will
last longer than on a normal weight car, all else being equal.
I agree that it's not a good datapoint
