Well of course I don't mean Mihawk alone is such a colossal threat since I'm of the mind that two Admirals are enough to finish off any single person in the series BUT the navy wouldn't risk it. The navy would MUCH prefer using stalling tactics than engaging in an assault that could lose them assets as important as an admiral
For example Kizaru is fully prepared to head out and intercept momma and kaido and of course he has no chance of actually engaging in combat and winning so the obvious route here was that Kizaru was just gonna stall them until the marines collected enough forces as to completely prevent the two from meeting
Now the downside such tactics aren't qute possible when dealing with one man is that its one man so who knows what he'll do. Like if the marines decide to arrest rayleigh, two Admirals are enough but rayleigh doesn't have territory or men to protect. If rayleigh is backed into a corner, he's Much more willing to go kamikaze than Big mom or Kaido. By this I mean Rayleigh could decide to just stake his life on killing an admiral on his way out and then what? The navy has taken out a guy who barely doesn't anythiNG and has lost a fuckin admiral in the process. I feel as though that's a general loss in the navy's side. This would similarly apply to Mihawk. The man has nothing to care about except the fight and that makes him that more dangerous than let's say whitebeard who could just sink marineford since ace and his men were there.
so it would be much better for the Navy to just bombard Mihawk's island from across the sea until he starts running and then start a long and arduous chase for days and hope mihawk like runs out of food and water or something
In the end, tactics of battke matter according to who you're dealing with and the circumstances around the encounters. Garp said it himself that the profit-loss ratio when dealing with Rayleigh would too much against the navy to bother capturing him. And yet against the whole whitebeard pirates they were ready and waiting with fully fleshed out tactics and all the shit. This doesn't mean that rayleigh is harder to deal with than a Yonkou crew, it means the possible gain from killing him is much less than the gain from taking out a Yonkou when compared to the respective losses involved.
Therefore Mihawk of course doesn't have the strength or importance of an entire Yonkou crew like Blackbeard's but him being a single man also creates new challenges that you wouldn't find in dealing with a yonkou crew and the tactics employed would change and you could again find like with rayleigh that dealing with a single person in the long run is a net loss compared to dealing with a whole Yonkou crew.
That's my write up about the nuances of tactics in battle that would be required in dealing with mihawk and so his bounty isn't as cut and dry as "he has no crew so he is automatically an easier target"
Well mihawk is CANONICALLY the Strongest swordsman on the planet and the planet includes Admirals and Yonkou and gorosei and revolutionaries and whoever the flying fuck
I've explained in this post how being a single man doesn't automatically make it easier for the navy to deal with you. Read above if you care

and that war can effect the world WAY TOO MUCH
so they won't go in war unless THEY HAVE TO
but to take down Mihawk ... they need a fight .... and nothing real would change in the world ... just WSS be empty and that's not a real big deal for real world
a man
with no political power
that can be taken down any time a Yonko or Marine CARE ENOUGH to fight him ...
is no real danger
