Why would I be? There’s no indication that Kaidou ever clashed with Roger after God Valley, but there is for Shiki, right?
And what we get from that instance is that Shiki couldn’t even draw his fight with Roger to be considered his equal — he ended up with a steering wheel stuck in his head.
Kaidou never fought Roger, so no, Kaidou is exempt. If he had confronted Roger, then you’d actually have an argument.
To make it clearer, any pirate who never fought Roger still has the chance to prove they can match him. Those who did fight him and didn’t receive that kind of portrayal have no one claiming that people simply failed to recognize them as his equals. They just didn’t reach that status.
I don’t know, what I do know is that Garp and Roger fought many times to the death. Whitebeard and Roger ended in a draw on panel, with Buggy saying he’s the only man to ever match Roger, and the narrator later confirming the same in Marineford. And Shiki… well, he ended up with a steering wheel stuck in his head, and nobody thinks he’s Roger’s equal. In Chapter 0 itself he’s practically kissing Roger’s ass harder than anyone has ever done in this manga.

Literally the omniscient narrator considered him Roger’s equal. Whitebeard considered him as an equal as well. Two Roger equals fought Shiki 2v1 and the fight was close.
Like did you even read chapter 0
