Nice rebuttal smh
Brook foreshadow is just the musician.
You say that Yamato vivre card is an aftertought, but Brook being connected to Laboon is NEVER mentioned nor foreshawed until he appears, and is just an aftertought as much.
Nobody has ever been linked to Ace as much as Yamato so far. The vivre card appears in volume 18 if i am not wrong.
Stop using double standards.
And i told you that brook interacted way way more, why do you repeat it?
Also you ignored all the Yamato contribution in Onigasjima, which makes me think you are arguing in bad faith

Luffy has not shown remotely this type of excitement regarding Yamato.
Luffy summed up all the reasons he wanted Brook to join that relate to past events. FORESHADOWING!
Luffy, Sabo, Garp, Roger, Dadan, Whitebeard, Marco, Blackbeard, and Jinbe are more linked to Ace than Yamato. Yamato and Tama are in the same tier of connection to Ace.
I'm not ignoring anything. I stated Brook and Yamato were not comparable with reasons that connect to Strawhat recruitment. Repeating the interaction differences is for inference.
What are Yamato's contributions? Protecting Momo at times, knocking out a Numbers, stalling Kaido, and freezing bombs. That has merit but what does that have to do with connecting Yamato as a Strawhat?
Please tell me what brook does in Thriller Bark that top fighting A Yonko in 1v1 🤔
Tops in what way? Yamato has been depicted stronger than Brook. That does not make Yamato a likely Strawhat though. Plenty of non-Strawhats could beat Brook in a fight. Stalling Kaido is a good fighting feat. That's it. So Yamato "tops" Brook in combat. But it's not like Brook didn't fight a Yonko in Big Mom after getting copies of her Ponegliffs (more important than anything Yamato has done). We don't know how well or long Brook held up outside of injuring Prometheus so it is debatable. But I'll still give that to Yamato since that tidbit is on Whole Cake Island and offscreen.
Brook "tops" Yamato in meaningful interactions with the Strawhats. Not debatable.
Brook has the foreshadowed musician position unlike Yamato who no one yet knows how Yamato would contribute to the crew outside of fighting. Sake Brewer? Ship Guard? Log keeper? Pirate Apprentice? Another Combatant??? All guesses which shows either Oda is hiding it for some reason or the more likely scenario where there is position for Yamato on the Sunny. So Brook "tops" Yamato in crew position.
Luffy was specifically fighting for Brook's freedom in Thriller Bark. Luffy saving Yamato was a byproduct of the raid which was for Momo, Kin'emon, Tama, and others connected. So Brook "tops" Yamato in the story arc connection aspect.
Brook and Yamato are not comparable.
