As an offensive tool, GER is strong but not perfect. It can overpower King Crimson, so it's probably around Star Platinum level, but that's just a guess. I'm not entirely sure if the infinite death loops required GER to actually kill Diavolo to activate, since Trish says he's still alive, but it's likely. About GER's power, it's actually possible that GER is actually stronger than Star Platinum, since it's power and speed skyrocketed.

If this is possible, the infinite death loops actually required GER to punch Diavolo, who knows. Do you have any proof that its stats "skyrocketed"? Also, GER being active during Diavolo's ability seems to just be an effect of the Arrow, granting GER a counter to the thing its user wanted to beat the most. Can the normal Gold Experience shoot a rock with a single finger, then destroy a building with the same rock? Yes, ik about SP and CD shooting bullets, but it required holding it. GER, however, flicked it without holding the rock itself, and created life forms from it.

"Also, GER being active during Diavolo's ability seems to just be an effect of the Arrow, granting GER a counter to the thing its user wanted to beat the most."

It might be possible that it could actually counter nearly any ability (except ones that can Overwrite Reality), since, first, Requiem allows you to manipulate souls (in GER's case, fate), and second, Giorno doesn't know the extent of his powers.
