RAP-based OData V4 is the way to go, see https://community.sap.com/topics/abap/rap.

RAP uses CDS and Gateway under the hood, so its both and much more.

Thanks Ralf. What are the demerits of Gateway OData over RAP based OData/CDS based OData?

RAP provides an increasing number of OData features out-of-the-box that you'd have to hand-craft with Gateway OData.

It's both easier and more future-proof to use RAP.
