JB said he put his strongest Haki and they specifically asked question, not certainly said it is.
Oda didn't compare Shanks and Rayleigh, he gave example that if fishmen felt a stronger Haki, all of them would get knocked out, there was 100k fishmen, and all of them would get knocked out. He didn't say out of 1 million fishmen, they would both knock 100k, it was explaining that all of them are too weak, not a comparison between Shanks and Rayleigh.
If Oda truly wanted to show a huge or at least a significant difference between Shanks and Rayleigh, he could have done it like that:
It also doesn't help your argument when both Shanks and Rayleigh used their CoC outburst to threaten another top tier.
Shanks's feats >>> Rayleigh's feats. There are no comparisons.
Shanks's AP can hurt Loki's defenses in order for him to capture Loki.
2.) This dude tanks attacks from a god tier who would eat 3 Rogers for breakfast, let alone Roger 2.0...
Plus, Shanks showed FS superior to Loki or Imu.
