One source states that "most scholars place the Khatris as a Vaisya caste", and the other does not refer to "Khatri of Gujarat" as you suggest. Britannica in the India article states Khatri to be a new caste, I have posted it in a topic above. It is also easy to find additional sources that state Khatri to be a merchant caste. I have attempted to balance the viewpoints of multiple sources, where you want me to remove sources that do not agree with your viewpoint, even though most sources state Khatris to be a merchant caste.
