Speculations The admirals are easily replaceable gears. The gorosei are immortals and the direct subordinates of Imu. Its pretty clear who are the real villains.

The World Government isn't like a Yonko Crew. In Yonko crews, might equals authority. In the World Government, status equals authority. A random Celestial Dragon like Saint Charlos possesses more authority than an Admiral and would be considered more "irreplaceable" due to his noble status but we aren't going to argue Charlos >>>>> Kizaru now are we?
We also saw Spandem be the commander of CP9 over a powerhouse like Lucci.
The Gorosei could be powerful fighters, it is not impossible but they (and Imu) could also be a bunch of Spandems for all we currently know.

Because the Remnants were still a Powerful group and had huge amounts of territories.
BB was the 5th player back then and he eventually took over after he crushed them & WBP disbanded. BMP remnants arent even in contention now because Oda probably wanted for Cross Guild to take over that spot as soon as Wano was over so that he can start with the Final Saga.

There was no emperor at the time regardless tho.
The wbp lost thatch, teach himself, ace, whitebeard their captain, and other unknowns like maybe oars jr. Jozu even lost an arm they were severely weakened. Also the bbp were definitely stronger prior to the grudge war cause it was a clear stomp in teach’s favor

It is right but it is also true that Oda at this point spent a lot on admirals and he can't simply throw them under the train and start hyping the gorosei. Throughout the decades he not only displayed the admirals as powerhouses but also cared to give them personalities and motives (particularly Aokiji but we have seen that also Kizaru is getting feelings and motives, Akainu as well) and indeed we see that Oda is not throwing them under the train: Aokiji could have been sacrificed as an hype tool for Garp but that happened only partially, Aokiji is still there with his feelings and still a (pretty big) part to play. Kizaru as well was expected to be Zoro fight while Luffy took Saturn to show Gorosei are the new big enemies in the WG (after Im) but that didn't happen and instead Oda preferred to show (for now at least) Luffy fighting Kizaru while Saturn stays in the shadows.
