Hopefully they do another reanalysis this time comparing all three typhoons, Gay, Angela, and Haiyan and possibly include other typhoons.

They are ADT’s final T-number, but not CI-number. ADT has been revised many times, so storms are not really comparable by ADT.
Those unofficial experts just made unofficial re-analysis, and I doubt that JTWC will begin any re-analysis.
Besides, JMA has begun to re-analyse storms since 1981, and the part of storms during 1987 to 1996 will be released in the end of this year. If JMA changes the Koba table due to this re-analysis, Haiyan’s value may be revised.
