You would be right but unfortunately Jack was thrown aside on Wano.
Oda very carefully crafted Katakuri scenes. And he refused to have him lose to even the Jesus MC Luffy without an asterix.
To this day it's the only fight which ended in a double KO final clash. That speaks volumes of Oda's love for the character.
You see how Cracker was a victim of an Admiral statement, King and Queen were no different. He had Katakuri avoid this fate even though we all know Kat would be a statue if he ran into Kuzan. That's Oda protecting Kat.
