You are right, that info is not all that useful. But it would still be interesting to know, just to compare the sources of power. Even so that the dynamics of the applications are not comparable.

say F-35 weights 15 tons * 9,8 its ~ 147 kN.. more or less similar amount. and the oxygen molecules potential energy is what forces the emission of gas from the turbofan to lift the plain. then if the plane moves upward 1m/s, can You say, that the power is 147 kW? its absurd, isn't it? but...

How come internal combustion engines have power specified? And this one also, has Force specified, but no power. It doesn't make sense. I mean, I get the fact, that 99% of the chemical energy is probably just wasted, compared to more effective dynamics, but still.. Ford Mustang's engine's power...
