And that still doesn't change the fact that 剣士 means Swordsman IN THIS CONTEXT & not "Swordsmanship Man".
You cannot split 剣 from 剣士 and claim that the title refers to something else entirely, which is exactly what you are disingeneously doing right here.
The title is Sekai Saikyo no Kenshi meaning the World's Strongest Swordsman.
And as you said a while ago, Mihawk's title does not refer to the Weapon - it refers to Swordsmen.

This is not as easy as many people make it out to be because looking at it from the point of view that both Shanks and Mihawk are swordsmen, there is no debate. There is nothing shanks can with a sword that will make him stronger than Mihawk.
The Problem is that since we have been introduced to Shanks, he hasn't done anything significant with a sword (aside from blocking Akainu). What has been used to hype him has been Conqueror's haki.
It has been used on three separate occasions: Chapter 1, on Whitebeard's ship, and scaring off Aramaki in Wano. When one thinks of Shanks, his sword is not the first thing that comes to mind, it's his Conqueror's haki.
The point I'm trying to argue is that Shanks is a has-been swordsman that lost an arm years ago, to compare him to Mihawk on the basis of swordsman is simply unfair, especially since the only hype he has gotten since losing his arm has been because of his Conqueror's haki.
Oda even hinted that may be more to how Shanks fights in an SBS, until he is flexed out, we can't judge how strong he is.

@GoldDiamond look at this, fake translator. Look at how many small Hiragana remarks are placed above Kanjis so that people who don't know the specific Kanji can read the fucking Hiragana and know the word.
