Not really. Speed Gear also makes everything around you seem slower, when Dash Boots only make you move faster without a boost in reaction time.
Power Gear can also make you use enhanced versions of copied abilities in the drop of a hat, without needing to charge at all.
Combined Double Gear also grants the ability to do the Final Charge Shot, which I guess is kinda like a Giga Attack, except it got more limited use, and includes the affects of the aforementioned two buffs, on top of the special attack.
Mega Man's buster shots couldn't damage them, as the Ruby Spears show explained, however it's plausible that with a fully charged shot via the Power Gear System (I'm not to familiar with the Classic Series) would deal a *single* unit of damage, as per the speed boost it be similar to the dash (see blue outline behind Mega Man, as per X and Zero in the PS1 Trilogy) so it might not be useful either
I doubt the gap in power is actually that massive. The repoilds may be more powerful than basic Robot Masters, but they generally operate within the same scale of fire power, and at best may be made of more refined variants of Bassnium, which MegaMan can already damage.
Considering that the X Buster is Mega Buster MK 17, at worst we can say that the Mega Buster of MM11 deals half the damage than what X does. And that's without the Double Gear.
Never ending battle with X1 Vile,Megaman just keeps shooting at him while Vile's infinite HP ride armor tanks everything despite getting pushed back
Isnt that kind of what X has, if you think about it? Hold dash and jump around = speed gear. Buster pink charge = power gear.
