738 Vfly with x wind

Heres the scenario:

Wind 90 degrees from the left 20G30 i.e. no headwind component with F30

vfly speed is half the headwind + all gust component with min of +5 and max +20 knots

Question is this, as it's all crosswind technically vfly would be Vref30+5 or should it be Verf30+10 due to the gust factor?

I personally would fly +10 but I'm not sure. Any opinions?
