I get that, but I still don't quite understand how it is that Irene in human form and Irene in dragon form would have different amounts of magic power, unless one assumes that the dragon form actively absorbs additional magic in the environment. What may be said is that Irene can better access the reserves she already has when in dragon form, thus making it look like she exudes more power. In order words, total power remains the same, but accessibility differs. And note I said that the transmutation spell is temporary and thus reversible, since Irene when enraged was freely able to transform into a dragon, and revert back into human form after being slashed. That said we don't really know the exact mechanisms of Zeref's spell...A person can choose to not resist a magic spell. August did it when brandish was healing him!
This brings me to a rather interesting point. Now that I think about it, August vs Irene reminds me in many ways of Madara vs Hashirama in Naruto. August's copying ability is reminiscent of what the Sharingan and the Rinnegan can do, while Irene's enchantments are very much similar to sage mode... maybe my stance in favor of August partly reflects what I have seen in Naruto in that although Hashirama has naturally stronger physical stats, Madara after being resurrected was able to become superior by absorbing various other powers, including Hashirama's, and awakening his Rinnegan. Similarly, an optimized view of August would involve attributing to him various sorts of powers that would allow him to stand up to dragons barring Acnologia and Igneel
