What were Gababs ubber thoughts before he gave up, '' Oh no its G5 Luffy and Zoro I dont stand a chance'' or '' So thats the white form''. Sure Zoro was going to help him and thats a bit embarassing but the amount of help is is left to be determined. The fact of the matter is CoO master Gaban ascertained that G5 Luffy passed his test and he can deal with Loki if he goes crazy. Unless you seriously think he thinks they're going to jump Luffy if so more power to you.
For a thought experiment, imagine a younger Kaido came to Luffys village, like the one from Kings flashback.. We know he takes in kids(Ulti and page 1) and hears that Luffy has the same dream as his former captain(Rocks in this case). He would also probably help save Luffy from bandits and Luffy would look up to him for adventures and doing whatever he wants.

Can't blame them given how almost all non-DF top-tiers are ACoC users. But these guys are the top of the top tier realm. They'd still qualify as top-tiers even without CoC—they obviously wouldn't be as strong as they are when they have CoC given how big a power up it is.
This belief system mostly stems from Luffy. Peeps just look at the guy and think you can't go higher than that with non-CoC Haki because he has advanced forms when it's proven time and time again that even people with less advanced forms of Haki can have stronger and more refined Haki stats than him.
I think it's clear Gaban is a top-tier whether he has CoC or not, but he must need it or something else that compensates the difference if we're gonna believe he's close to RR.
