In a way, but it is also a general trend. Way longer arcs, way more side characters, way more Luffy and way more SHs. He has not the space to develop them like pre time skip so we get these asspulls. In a way the same can be said for Zoro tanking hakai and scarring Kaido without any relevant powerup from the time skip (he changed a sword, low diffed Pica and that is it, you can put some weeks of training in the time skip if you want), that means he could have bodied Doffy back in Dressrosa, probably even Fujitora. Oda didn't nurture Zoro or Sanji but now he suddenly needs them to be YC level when their last fights were Pica and Wadatsumi (if you exclude Vergo or a kick to Oven) and so the asspulls.
