Yamato's scaling is wack right now.
Yamato's AP should instead look like this:
Durability:
Speed:
Her base currently scales relative to Base Kaidou, but the reasonings is so odd.
First justification:
This makes no sense. Kaidou and Yamato both have two completely different Devil Fruit, so even if their Hybrid forms are relative (which I'll tackle later on in this thread), that doesn't meany anything for Yamato's base. Yamato's Devil Fruit, for all we know could amp them more than Kaidou's does to himself. We can't just say that "Hybrid Yamato ~ Hybrid Kaidou, so Base Yamato ~ Base Kaidou"
Therefore we should remove this justification.
Second Justification:
This is a clear outlier. I'll address this in the Yamato Hybrid scaling portion.
First justification:
Should be comparable to or stronger than Base Kaidou due to their Zoan Forms matching each other, with Kaidou having had his Devil Fruit for longer than Yamato, meaning his Zoan Forms should provide a superior amplification of power than Yamato's Devil Fruit.

Second Justification:
Although inferior, they blocked an attack from Hybrid Form Kaidou
This is a clear outlier. I'll address this in the Yamato Hybrid scaling portion.
Currently, Yamato's Hybrid fully scales to Hybrid Kaidou because:
The first part comes from this scan. In this image, although we do in fact see Yamato defending against Hybrid Kaidou's attacks, we also see that they are clearly on the backhand, bleeding from their face and breathing heavily while Kaidou is seemingly pretty casual.
What makes things worse is that in chapter 1024, we see more of Kaidou and Yamato exchanging blows.
We see Yamato spilling blood, huffing super hard, getting their attacks easily knocked away, and getting knocked back. All while the Hybrid Kaidou that she fully scales to is completely clean, unbothered, and undamaged.
Seeing how Hybrid Yamato is clearly inferior to a pretty noticeable degree to Hybrid Kaidou, it makes no sense to maker them fully scale to him, and it's even worse to include the outlier feat of Base Yamato blocking Hybrid Kaidou to their profile.
The second part is just as bad. The scan is here.
This is absolute bullshit. We literally SEE the impact marks that indicate where Yamato hit Kaidou (here). Yamato hit Kaidou at the top/back of his head. Kaidou was not defending there. He was blocking in front of his face, which is just not where Yamato hit. Yamato's profile makes it seem as though they knocked Kaidou's defense down, which is not what happened.
Fought and parried blows from Hybrid Form Kaidou. Knocked a Hybrid Form Kaidou who was defending himself to the ground with Himorogiri

Yamato with Hao Infusion's justification:
Yeah, no. Yamato never matched Kaidou's Raimei Hakke. They exchanged Raimei Hakkes, but it's ridiculous and outright inaccurate to claim that Yamato's matched Kaidou's.
Not only did Yamato end off much, much worse than Kaidou despite them using Kagami-yama to lessen the blow, they outright stated that they did not come close to the power of Kaidou's Raimei Hakke.
In the second part of Yamato's justification, it claims that Yamato could knock back Base Kaidou.
Luffy with Gear 4 Snakeman + Hao Infusion, already scales above Drunken Kaidou's durability, so we have no way of knowing how much damage Yamato would have actually done, so this justification has no place being here.
in their Hybrid Form, they matched Hybrid Form Kaidou's Raimei Hakke with one of their own and managed to draw a small amount of blood from him. In their Base Form, they knocked Base Kaidou back alongside a Gear 4th: Snakeman Luffy that was using Haoshoku Infusion

Yamato's AP should instead look like this:
Multi-Continent level (Was able to knock down X-Drake.), higher in Zoan Forms (Although vastly inferior, could momentarily hold their own against a casual Hybrid Kaidou. Their Namuji Hyoga matched Hybrid Form Kaidou's Bolo Breath), even higher with Haoshoku Infusion (Able to damage Hybrid Kaidou, and could somewhat clash with his Raime Hakke, although they admitted to not coming close to its full power.)
Durability:
Multi-Continent level (Comparable to their Attack Power.) , higher in Zoan Forms (Although taking damage and being unable to fully block the attack, they were able to take a Vajra Arrow from Hybrid Form Kaidou.), even higher with Kagamiyama (Can cover themselves with the same ice that they use to attack)
Speed:
FTL (Managed to tag Base Kaidou), higher in Zoan Forms (Kept up with Hybrid Form Kaidou), far higher with Thunder Bagua (Matched Hybrid Form Kaidou's own Thunder Bagua)
