Also, i disagree with the OP regarding G4 Luffy being "comparable" to Katakuri.
Boundman was near-blitzing Katakuri without any use of Haki, and Kata relied future sight to dodge attacks, Snakeman was simply too much regardless, so Haki was hardly relevant seeing as how Katakuri was still taking many blows.
If anything, as of WCI, all of Luffy's forms are possibly Relativistic+ anyways since he basically kept up with Katakuri in base by the end of the fight.
We should treat Luffy's 2 keys in Post time-skip as the following (and specify it):
Dressrosa Key should be change to "Up to Whole Cake" or simply "Whole Cake Arc" while the WCI Key should be treated as "Post-Whole Cake/Pre-Wano", treating the first Key as of Luffy's abilities up until the point where he first engages Katakuri, as there is absolutely no indication or reason to believe he has made any development on his part by the time he returned to Sabaody until he fights Katakuri and enhances his Haki.
So regarding Luffy's speed, he should be "At least MHS+, Possibly Rel+" in Base, 2nd, and 3rd Gears--seeing as how he could still (barely) keep pace with Doflamingo and matched Jinbe, while his Gear 4th speed is "Rel+" for outspeeding Doflamingo and fighting Cracker and his countless biscuit soldiers off-panel.

- Jinbe's scaling comes from leaping in to block Akainu's attack, intercepting an attack from Big Mom, and stopping Katakuri's attack on Luffy before it connected to the ground from a distance, so he'd probably be "At least MHS+, Possibly Rel+"
