Bonds' averaged less than 40 homers a year or so before his heaviest steroid use began. That's all he was before Balco.
Anderson's 50 HR season was a direct result of heavy steroid use ... just as Bonds' biggest HR seasons were. So, the percentages above are perfectly reasonable to consider in figuring highest season possibilities, even those you may regard flukes.
You say Carlos Lee and Travis Hafner were as good as or better than Babe Ruth? I'd better go get some coffee.
