Yes, I agree.I’m pretty certain that RU and Fin would mog Dut solo tbh.
I've looked into Dutasteride vs finasteride efficacy in a bit more detail.
Scalp DHT is not the only measure, intrafollicular DHT is arguably much more important.
This is from a relatively modern 2023 study:

Reasoning stated:
To fully understand the pharmacokinetics involved in AGA treatment, measuring the local concentration of both drugs to confirm their migration to the hair follicle tissue through the circulating blood is essential. The hair used as a biosample in our study was perceived to grow 1 cm per month, capturing steroids including finasteride, dutasteride, and DHT as it forms . In other words, the part of hair 3 cm from the root is considered a “storage medium,” representing the average concentration in the hair follicles for 3 months
I'll attach the paper so you can read into experimental set-up and dosages, if interested
