Zoro has been critical for the Straw Hats success in every single story arc he’s been involved in. With the exception of Luffy I don’t know of any other Straw Hats that could make that claim.
Shanks has also been a bum ass Gary Stu and I have been critical about it
Anyways, it makes much more sense for a static character in his peak and the literal goal of the MC to be a Gary Stu than a dynamic character who's supposed to grow and struggle
Sanji probably since hes actually done plot relevant stuff every arc. Zoro has also taken someone down almost every arc but Oda hasn’t had him do anything to push the plot forward in anny arc outside of Wano.
Frankys been the biggest chad tho and Usopp the biggest fall off as he was the MVP of PH and Dressrosa before he became irrelevant

Shanks is slowly growing out of the Gary Stu trope the more Oda focuses on his CD background and all that, but I don't see why it makes more sense for him to be a Gary Stu than Zoro tbh. Being the MC's idol doesn't mean he has to be a super sanitized and safe character at all, it's actually better for him to be more complex as it makes us question if Luffy's idolization of him is a healthy mindset for Luffy to have.
