I would personally argue that Ao5 and single are currently the only two officially ranked metrics for the event and therefore the only ones that matter. Global average has no more legitimacy nor meaning than UWRs to me.
Well, as someone who supports UWR's, I have to say you're wrong. You can easily just get lucky and get a good average of 5 or single. No one says average of 5 is accurate.
Lucas has 2 official sub7 averages, he was 2016 US Champion and he got first ever sub5 seconds single.

So yeah, obviouslyo_O
...Bill has a better single, ao5, ao12, ao50, ao100 and ao1000, and you say Lucas is definitely faster? Also, does that mean in 2015 Lucas was better than Feliks?

I have better single, ao5, ao12, ao50, ao100 and ao1000 than Bill.

And people's personal opinion.
When I made this thread, I made it to have a fun discussion about different world class speed cubers, not to create a war across the internet. If it pleases you that much, then I'll say whatever you want. You think Max and Lucas are better than Bill just because of official results? I'm fine with that! You say official solves are the only thing that matters? Whatever. You think Kian is a lot slower than he actually is? Think what you want!

We're not attacking you. If you think something different to what the WCA rankings say we want to know why. You'll just need to justify why times at home are more important than official times.

EDIT: I mean make a strong case.

If you disagree, tell me why. I'll try to convince you otherwise, though I'm not 100% sure about some of the placements, so then I'll be able to correct my list.

I've revised your list into my idea of an ideal list of the top 10 speedcubers. Also, this is only for 3x3, I might make another list for other puzzles.

10. Sebastian Weyer
9. Rami Sbahi
8. Bill Wang
7. Philipp Weyer
6. Patrick Ponce
5. Max Park
4. Lucas Etter
3. Mats Valk
2. Seung Hyuk Nahm
1. FELIKS!!!

Rami is officially the 10th fastest American. I guess you're trolling
