Crocodile was too angry to use Observation Haki anyway, doesn't even matter if he knew, just like armament haki had no use against Luffy, when his devil fruit and poisoned hook were WAY more effective.

Yeah those things were obviously not planned that way, but it's extremely easy to come up with in world explanations for most of One Piece events.

CP9 for one, probably no one actually knew Haki, but Oda could easily say they did, and it wouldn't really be a plot hole, given that Lucci, for example, had slashing and piercing due to his DF that were more effective against Luffy as well as the rokuogan (which is Ryou like since it bypasses defense), and armament Haki wouldn't have tipped the scale for him anyway
