great points.
Fact is Iran qualified to the Olympics twice, this Gilas team not yet. Objectively Iran golden gen is better because they've achieved their ultimate goals. But since this is a new GIlas team, we don't know yet how they look like in peak form. We've already seen Iran at its best and it's ok... almost beat Spain, moral victories here and there... can't say they shocked the world.
...but this Gilas team on the other hand, though, has real upset potential over top 10 teams, on a consistent basis. That's why it'll be a huge disappointment if they miss LA 2028. We can only judge which team is better once this core is disbanded.
