Considering your knowledge about the topic, the usual level of care and effort you put into your writing, and your apparent enthusiasm for the task, I am pretty sure that you’ll do a better job than at least 99% of reviewers in practice.
In my experience from inside the academic sausage factory, most peer reviews are quite awful. (Bryan Caplan is one academic who openly agrees.) This is not very surprising considering that the work is difficult, tedious, unpaid, uncredited, without any penalties for doing a bad job, and usually passed on to otherwise overworked, underpaid, and apathetic grad students. If you just manage to understand the paper and offer any sensible criticism and suggestions, that will be magnificent by the usual standards.
With this in mind, these papers you cite strike me as rather detached from how things really work in practice. Such high and elaborate intellectual standards might be realistic for reviewers writing publicly and with some incentive to do a good job, but definitely not for the way anonymous peer review works presently.
