Allanon definitely does not topple Zeruiah and that particularly has to come from Allanon having such low momentum compared to Zeruiah. With SBB gauge fill on BB, you're bound to get your SBB up even in the some of the most harsh BC resistances. Yes, Allanon has a mixture of buffs that juggle between BB and SBB, but because he doesn't carry as good of a momentum as Zeruiah to effectively switch between BB/SBB. As Death said, Allanon's stats don't live up to the main standards of this current state of the metagame. He's simply way too squishy to be viable in places like Strategy Zone and FH Bondage.

From your standpoint, you're using multiple units that replace one unit, which makes squad building extremely inefficient. Not to say it's an absolute must-have to summon for her, but Zeruiah's mix of buffs already make her one of the most squad efficient units in the game. It's also not to mention that Zeruiah is able to provide all elements of mitigation on her SBB if you enhance it, which is the first ever to come that involves attacking as well. Allanon doesn't do that, but instead with his BB that doesn't even have any sort of damage output.

In terms of OD filling, Rengaku and Haido can OD fill, but I can guarantee you that they can't do it as well as Zeruiah can. It's also not to mention that Zeruiah can utilize this with her infinite SBB, allowing her to effectively use it. Yes, BB draining is there, but that can be said for any unit out there.

In Frontier Hunter, double Avant leads are still the main meta, particularly because their damage utility is so widespread. They still provide the highest consistent damage utility in the game on Leader Skill and that hasn't changed since his release.

I'm not trying to say that Zeruiah is the best unit out there, because there really isn't a best unit in the game. Her squad efficiency and synergy with a lot of squads is what makes her incredible in almost any quest you bring her to.
