I would worry only about my own salary and keep quiet. Firm will eventually introduce a cohort and address these things.

Not an uncommon situation. How did you find out?

He told me last week during our 1:1, I almost blurted out how much I made but stopped myself.
That’s just how it goes, tell em to get some leverage
The right people are worth stirring the pot for

Let it go. 5% is just a numerical range. They are probably happy with their job and salary. No need to ruin it for them.
It definitely makes you feel better, keep it yourself and your loved ones. In fact your loved ones also care you are doing well and are happy, you making more than someone doesn’t matter to them

Yeah I figure this too, if we were at the same level I really wouldn’t care. But he’s a level above and still not getting the same rate as me, that’s what really irks me. Also he disclosed his pay to me, so felt like I owe him too in that regard.
It’s possible he was downplaying his salary or not sharing other comp benefits that he receives. Either way, let it go. He could likely find out your salary if he wanted.

5% isn’t really much in the grand scheme of things. I’d just stay quiet and go on with my day.
