But what exactly is win shares a good metric of? Harvard might have only 3 wins without the sophs, but so what? How does that answer the question of whether they “should” have more? I think your later responses go more to that.

Even with players being able to generate negative win shares, if by senior year the rotation is the 7 2016 recruits, they are going to have a high win share total even if they are finishing 3rd in the league. In other words, the argument of the lack of quality classes around them cuts both ways — it can inflate their win shares without necessarily meaning anything other than they got to play the most minutes. To me, that means it just doesn’t answer the question of where a group of 4 top 100 recruits ought to be.
