Even your Mard Geer assessment is accurate, because at this stage in the game, Natsu, Gray and most probably Gajeel are stronger than him, and Mirajane would've had the advantage anyway, given how power scaling is done and how her magic worked on Seilah. I actually quite truthfully agree with your list, except where you list Makarov. I probably would have just excluded him entirely because he's stated to have immeasurable magic power, which is supposed to be a testament to his strength, but he has yet to display anything consistently noteworthy with that "immeasurable" power.
