I know this is a rather...heavily debated topic, but after looking over the final parts of the Luffy vs Kaido fight, I think I may have found a way for the >=4x multiplier for Gear 4 to be used without completely screwing up the scaling.
So to start, while normal Hybrid Kaido (even with Hao Infusion) will stay at 1.497 exatons alongside Post Hao Base, Gear 2, and G3 Luffy, Shuron Hakke Kaido should scale alongside Gear 4 to the 4x multiplier of 5.988 Exatons, as Shuron Hakke Kaido clearly matched and even killed Gear 4th Luffy while struggling far less than he did while sober against G4 Luffy, not to mention he tanked hits from Luffy's various gears noticeably better than before and it was indeed stated that his Haki was stronger so that could very well apply to his durability as well.
Yes Luffy did match his Shuron hakke attack with Roc Gatling, but that attack is no doubt well above Normal Gear 3rd in power in the same way that Jet Gatling scales well above Gear 2nd and Kong Gatling is well above Gear 4th's normal power.
Luffy's G4 strongest attacks would scale to >= 2x this, as they'd scale above a 2-handed G4 attack, so they'd scale >= 11.976 exatons.
This would scale to Luffy's G4 strongest attacks and Shuron Hakke Zoan/Hybrid Kaido's durability, as he tanked 2 of the Strongest Attacks (Over Kong Gun and Hydra) and still kept going strong even if they did some hefty damage.
As for Gear 5, I'm not sure whether to just scale him far above Gear 4 or to scale him above the Strongest Attacks.
If the former, he scales to 5.988 exatons. If the latter, he scales to above 11.976 exatons.
Yes Hybrid Kaido hurt him but G5 quickly recovered from all of Hybrid Kaido's hits IIRC.
This of course affects Bajrang Gun, since it is >=4x normal Gear 5 so it'd be either 23.952 exatons (High 6-A+) or 47.904 exatons (moon level).
Thoughts?
