See, I don't have a problem with Haki for a simple reason.
One Piece abilities are generally natural extensions of human ability, with the exception of some Devil Fruit users of course, for example in the case of Luffy it's still true his power comes from pushing his natural ability while supplementing elasticity rather than his elastic abilities themselves granting him all the power.
Haki is exactly like Monster Strength or the other abilities of a super human nature displayed by non-DF users.
If you yell at little kids hard enough, bad enough, they faint. They can't deal with someone putting that much emotional pressure on them and so they shut down, can't deal with it, that's all Emporer's Haki is, a natural extension of that kinda of pressure, you've screamed at someone so hard, asserted how dominate you are that they fold like a cheap suit case, they cannot be conscious in the presence of you.
It's not hard to predict someone/thing heading your way, breathing, wooshing sounds, the vibe you are getting from your opponent, just a natural extension of what everyone usually learns as a kid in Dodge ball where now you aren't tricked by the kid pretending to whip the ball into the air, you are so ready for it that it becomes kinda sad, you catch it and the kid's out, it really is just observation taken to a super human extreme.
I took Archery as a kid, marksmanship as a teen, I was a boxer for a while too and what they all have in common is visualization, your trainers tells you stuff like "Yer glove is a million pounds, go knock him around with it" or "The bull's eye is a landing strip, forget about power and guide your arrow which is now a plane right into that landing strip" or "just let those fucking shots fly right into the target, like mosquitoes they are!" or any of the other jargon. It's about visualization to increase effectiveness, then when taken to the super human end of the scale it takes on the property of what was visualized or even the property of that item.
