1) When Luffy ran up Pica's arm with Ushi Zoro predicted by CoO where Pica would appear
2) Sanji > Zoro in terms of CoO so he most likely has better range and can do it more efficiently
3) Sanji has better mobility, can fly and is faster, he can get to the real body faster before it moves
4) Sanji doesn't need the same destructive capabilities as I said before, but you didn't read and just repeat yourself.
4B) Sanji can sky walk and do an anti manner kick course into the golem and pop Pica out with a pin point attack.
4C) Zoro was just guessing where he was until he was out of space to move in by eliminating the dead stone parts.
5) That is the difference between a Sanji fight and a Zoro fight. When Zoro is facing an obstacle he uses more power and Sanji walks around it.
So you basically just repeated yourself in that post and now you can go think of some other stuff that you can't back up.
Best thing in that post is probably that Pica can 'just' dodge Sanji. Because Pica was known for his nimble stone body and fast movements right.
I like your posts most of the time, but here I don't think you're correct.
1) When merged with stone, no CoO can pinpoint Pica's location. Every time he was discovered was by 1. Sensing as he emerges. 2. Seeing the rock animate, or just slightly shaking.
2) Why do you take this as a fact?
3) That's true about mobility, Sanji has the fastest speed and mobility. But Zoro's attacks are ranged, I think it's about a tie in terms of who gets to him first.
4) True so far, I didn't read the rest of the argument.
4B) Like I said, there's no proof in the manga that he can pinpoint Pica. The kick is akin the final slice. The only thing differentiating the two was that Zoro needed help getting there, while Sanji would be able to Skywalk. The only other thing is strength, it's uncertain Sanji's kick would be as efficient in defeating Pica as Zoro's slash. I'm just going to say yes, sure, but that's my opinion, not a fact.
4C) That was pretty smart of him. And Sanji would have to, as per the manga. He certainly has the brain power, but would he be able to pull it off? You claim Sanji is less destructive, but that is not so. Sanji would shatter the Golem and Pica would just flee again, Zoro's clean cuts and patience were crucial in defeating Pica. Not so sure Sanji would have been able to do it.
5) That's also true, but, in this case, Pica's walking around skills were better than Sanji's. And Zoro's was more well equipped to battle him, even if both would have been able to defeat him with a final attack. I just don't think that, without Zoro's method, Sanji would have been able to land that final kick. Sanji would have, maybe, no problem lifting the golem off the air, and get to it in mid-air. But then he would have to land an attack that effectively shatters the rock, all of it, into chunks smaller than Pica's body, and I don't think he has shown enough strength or skill to achieve such a feat.
