I think the easiest way to find that out is to create a 1941 save and a 2019 with the desired settings and then to manually inspect the ratings of Feller & Berrios.
Because you are correct IF 'real stats' don't neutralize for era and ballpark then it logically follows that Feller's K rate in 1941 will pale in comparison to most pitchers in the modern era.
