Is winsorizing limited to the usage of a certain percentile cutoff? The Context
My dataset consists of 68 groups, each with 4 data points inside it.
As means of a robustness test, I am looking to see how the type of average/mean I use impacts the analysis that I will make.
In this case, I am using five types of means which are (1) a harmonized mean, (2) a geometric mean, (3) an arithmetic mean, (4) a trimmed arithmetic mean, and (5) a winsorized arithmetic mean.
The Question
After reading, I understand that the common practice for winsorizing is by first selecting a value of x% - of which the top x% percentile and bottom x% percentile that will be then winsorized. However, I was wondering if the following approach would be better suited to my case:
Doing a Grubbs' / Dixon's test to identify outliers in each group, and then winsorizing those outliers. Would this be better than selecting a certain x%? This is because I only have four data points.
Side Note (Open to any comments)
I understand that Grubbs and Dixon both operate under the assumption of normally distributed data, so I have also conducted a normality test (Shapiro-Wilk) for all 68 groups. However, I have also read a study (https://www.osti.gov/biblio/5478051-note-robustness-dixon-ratio-test-small-samples-testing-outliers) that mentioned Dixon's Q-test can operate on non-normal distributed data given a small samples (3-5). Hence,
a. For groups that are normally distributed, I apply the Grubbs test to find for outliers.
b. For groups that are non-normally distributed, I apply the Q-test to find for outliers.

If you have 3-5 points per group then running normality tests, detecting outliers, removing, or winsorizing them makes very little sense. The samples would be too small to say something meaningful about the distribution. For example, if you run the Shapiro-Wilk test for normality with a sample of size 5, you would get $p$-value that is about 0.4 for data coming from a uniform distribution and 0.5 for data coming from the normal distribution. You could toss a coin as well.

Same with detecting outliers: below you can see 25 random draws from a standard normal distribution, how many "outliers" do you see on the plots? At least six plots look like having "outliers", but in fact, we just have tiny sample sizes, so tiny differences look large, while with larger sample sizes you would be able to better judge the actual distributions of the data.

Also notice that considering such values as outliers makes little sense conceptually. If you have five values, considering one of the points an outlier means that you consider 20% of the data to be outliers, if you mark two values as outliers, 40% of the data is considered as outliers. Outlier is a value that differs from the majority of other observations, while here the "outliers" would nearly be the majority.
If you have 3-5 points throwing away even a single point (directly, or by replacing it with another value) is a huge loss of the data. Moreover, if you substitute the value with something, it would in many cases strongly bias your results. Even with larger data, discarding "ugly" data is usually a bad idea that leads to cherry-picking. Statistics is not about throwing away data that is inconsistent with your hypothesis, it's the other way around.
I recommend you to check other questions tagged as small-sample for many examples of dealing with small samples. This is a hard and tricky problem and the procedure you choose for the data will have a significant influence on the results you will obtain, so you need to proceed with caution.
