Questions & Mysteries Luffy not getting a bounty bost makes no sense.

No logic behind it except that the WG downplayed his threat level post-Wano. His bounty should be in the 4 bill range already and higher than BB or Buggy who did nothing impressive.
Since bounty is also mostly a hypetool for powerlevels then it makes sense that Goofy is below BB or Shanks in that aspect.

Blackbeard didn't get his increase because he defeated Bia Hancock, given he had his 3.996 billion bounty at the time he was fighting Boa Hancock.
He mostly got it because of Kuzan (who doesn't seemingly have a bounty yet and I think there was a SBS or something like that which implied Kuzan in Blackbeard's crew was rumors before we got confirmation Kuzan was Teach's subordinate) and because his crew became stronger with all of them having devil fruits now.
To answer the topic, Luffy's bounty is already too low for what he did. But we know the WG tries to hide Luffy's true threat level, hence his low bounty.
Luffy, after Egghead, shoud have gotten an increase because he and his crew fought an entire Buster Call consisting of 100 navires, 9 Vice Admirals, 1 Admiral and the Gorosei and they managed to flee and an entire island got destroyed in the process. That's not a little feat.
But if we stay in this logic of the WG trying to belittle Luffy's feats, we can say the WG splited up the accountability between Luffy and Dorry/Broggy, hid the fact Luffy "won" against that huge Buster Call and considered that setting ablaze an island is a low level feat for an Emperor like Luffy. So no increase for Luffy.

That was a flashback, as we’re shown from the cross guild chapter the Warlord Bounties weren’t given until after the failed assaults on their islands. Boas bounty was revealed in the flashback, but she didn’t have that bounty till after. Likely exact same as Blackbeard.
Luffy genuinely didn’t deserve a bounty boost in egghead. He didn’t do anything that warrants being worth more than 3 Billion and his crew didn’t beat a buster call, the giants did with the help of Joyboy and Emeth

Boa Hancock's new bounty and Teach's new bounty were revealed in the same page. So Teach likely got his new bounty at the same time than the ex Warlord because during the meeting with Brandnew (during which the topic was the update of the Warlords' bounties), we saw Teach still had his 2.2 billion bounty.
I didn't say Luffy's crew beat the Buster Call, I said they fought it and "won" because they all managed to flee that thing. And the emphasis would have been on Luffy because he's the captain and he allowed his crew (with Dorry/Broggy help) to flee by fighting an admiral and the Gorosei (and because an island with a lot of technological ressources got destroyed in the process).
So, Luffy did things which would have warranted an increase, maybe not a huge one but one nonetheless.
But like I said, the WG (and the press) only made public Luffy just set ablaze Egghead with Dorry/Broggy, which is a little feat for an Emperor like Luffy hence the no increase.

The same page of a flashback. That doesn’t mean they had that bounty at that moment in time but in the current time that was their bounty. As I said, we know Boas bounty was not revealed at this point as were shown in the cross guild chapters that warlord bounties weren’t given until after cross guild formed which was a few days after that attack.
The day that Amazon Lily was attacked is the exact same day that the Ultimate Chapter was released which revealed Blackbeards 2.2 Billion Berry bounty. We’re shown this because the assault on the warlords was started one chapter before that. And as shown from the cross guild chapters, Brannew didn’t update the Warlord bounties until after cross guild was formed which was well after the attack on Amazon Lily.
The bounties from the flashback were current, not their bounties on the attack of Amazon Lily.

Luffy's bounty never made sense.
Imagine invading Enies Lobby, burning the flag, declaring war on the government, defeating CP9, surviving a Buster Call, defeating two Warlords, punching a Celestial Dragon, invading the war, being the brother of the Pirate King's son, and the son of the most dangerous man in the world.
And only getting a 400 million bounty.
Oda clearly wasn't thinking ahead.
