There's a dissonance there for me and it's Oda's fault.
On one hand, logically, I could agree with what you've said, although that would explain the non-interference of the marines, not of the Holy Knights or CP0. I can see Doflamingo folding the weaker agents, but there were some actually strong ones in there even without Lucci and Kaku, and they can act all together as an assassination unit like they're supposed to be.
On the other hand, we have that Garp and even random marine fodders know about stuff like the tenryubito rabbit hunts and they do nothing about it. They just keep enforcing the WG rule. Based on their story merits they appear like a safe bet to capture Doflamingo and stay loyal about it.
I do think there's something big missing from Doflamingo's backstory. What does he know that people that can stroll down Mariejoa like admirals and common human royalty don't know about, and how? He was a kid, and common tenryubito know nothing of Imu or of the things Vegapunk exposed.
