Well this was relative to rookie league, not Single A. If you think it's reasonable for a rookie level hitter, or even Low A, to have an above average AAA season, then we are not on the same planet.

Take Leo De Vries, an actual top IAFA prospect, and look at his Davenport translations for his first MiLB year.

You'll see they roughly come out to around Jake Meyers 2024 MLB season, which is a .646 OPS in MLB
I don't understand what you think this proves. For starters, idk what's going on in that link so I just looked at his BB Ref page. He's doing ok in A+ so I'd presume his real life current ability is roughly that of an A+ player... That's not what my test in post 56 demonstrated. IRL, take a rookie ball player and put him in AAA and he will not hit for a 102 OPS+
