It will still be a matter of subjective judgement. What do you consider more important? Consistency? Sustained success? Span of time between your first and last won title? Do you count all medals, or just wins? How much more important do you think the majors are?I think for now they are about the same level or FHF may have a slight edge, however, if Hendra win the OG next year, I think it can be agreed on that Hendra is the GOAT
In the end, personal bias and preference will be the main deciding factors, imop. Even if you make a great effort to ignore it, you will never be able to do so completely, and simply applying a formula (which would already contain some of your personal, hence possibly biased preferences) would ignore other context (for example the fact that HS only won one major title with Lee/Jung active, whereas Cai/Fu won 3, or that HS enjoyed sustained success with two partners, whereas Fu only won few titles with Zhang...and that's just scratching the surface).
Overall, unless HS wins something like another OG and WC Gold and 2 more AEs, I wouldn't ever say that there's a clear better player. Not to mention we haven't even gone back to the times before these two players in the argument (concerning GOAT status), because there's very solid arguments to be made for PJB as well, for example.
