If you're taking the three fast bowlers at their peaks, I don't agree. Careers as a whole though, then yeah.
So you'd be talking circa 2010 for Khan, 07-08 for Lee and 04-06 for Freddie

But then tbf you should take the current bowlers at their respective peaks too. 19-20 Starc, 18-21 Cummins, 19-21 Hazlewood for example.
Also worth comparing the batting line ups they faced. I haven't done that, but my gut instinct tells me that Flintoff, Zaheer and Lee bowled at better line ups during their peak.

I get what you mean, but tbf trundler specifically said it was no better than attacks that routinely take the field. Though you could easily still cite 2019 Australia using your timelines, which is fair.

This is true but I doubt they were actually averaging over 30 during those peaks.

Lee and Zaheer are both cases where they spent large parts of heir careers being junk and significantly shorter periods being very good, though imo Zaheer's good periods were both longer and better than Lee's albeit they came at the back end of his career, whereas Lee was very good for 18 months when he burst on the scene, injured his elbow vs WI then was pretty weel bog average until the last 2 years of his career. Zaheer > Lee imo.
