Why would he change the rankings if the people he wanted as 2nd commander were already in the crew? Had Ace refused then you'd have a point, but besides that there's no reason for WB to promote Jozu when he sees Ace as a fit 2nd division commander.

]. Wounds on Sabo's face and he looks tired while Fuji is unscathed. And then you can also see Fuji's statement, he's only going to start trying from that point on, meaning he was shitting on Sabo without trying. And Marco's DF did just fine against Akainu's, not sure what you're reading here. Ace was entirely weak to the magma since it just went through Ace's fire. When he went up against an equal DF like Ice, he was on par with Kuzan, who mind you is also an admiral on par with Akainu and most likely stronger then Fujitora. And Sabo does seem to have like 4 wounds despite being a logia, so he'd have had to take a few direct Haki hits since imbuing gravity with Haki won't damage Sabo in the first place. Thus Fuji's DF is at a disadvantage strong vs Haki users.
And then you remember I never said Ace beats Sabo, I said Sabo wins high diff. Also, Ace was fighting Sabo on par without is fruit. Ace hasn't had his DF for more then 5 or 6 years, he was fighting with Sabo long before that though. Ace had equal or better potential, given he was the son of the PK and had CoC since he was like 10. Also, Sabo having had his fruit for a few days does not indicate mastery. Ac having it for years does indicate mastery. There's a huge gap in strength in terms of DF, both having the same DF doesn't mean they're equals with it. Luffy and Zoro had this huge progression because they were training for 2 years straight. Sabo does not train for 2 years, he's either sitting on his ass or killing pirates with 1 hit kills. That's experience, not really training.
Not sure what feat you are referring to here then.
When exactly did I say this rule applies to every crew? I'd love you to quote me on that. Because last I checked I'm only making this claim off of WB pirates BECAUSE of the correlation between commander of division 1 to commander of division 6. Marco>Jozu>Vista>Blamenco. Then we have the 4th commander having been Thatch, and with his Yami Yami, I presume he was stronger then the ones thereafter. It's CLEARLY in order of strength, there's no outlier between the higher division commanders. BB pirates having a different order=/=WB pirates having a different order.
Baseless speculation.
He can propel himself with the fire in a similar way to what Smoker does. It's not limited so he could just continuously do this and there's nothing that's stopping him. And wouldn't have done shit to BB, he can just use the black hole to send him back to the ground, no?
Agreed that Ace isn't weak, strength wise Jozu is stronger because Jozu's strength is above anyone's in WB pirates. In general Ace should be stronger though just because of his division number. And what's so far fetched when I say Ace's Dai Enkai Entei would inflict
severe burns on Jozu? Especially when small amounts of flame from his firefly light inflicted burns on the likes of BB, who could survive WB's direct Gura Gura punch and Sengoku's Buddha shockwaves.
