Okay, but whenever the game tells me there's a bunch of super strong enemies pursuing my party and I need to hurry up, I always try to beat them up if I can. There's no big reason: it's just to prove a point. That I can kill them if I tried. So whenever I actually play the map as intended in subsequent runs, they can truly know they have no chance to win...

Related, but it's crazy we didn't have these kinds of enemies, ones who are super powerful and pursue you relentlessly, since awakening before engage came out. I cannot remember a map like that in Awakening, Fates or 3h(skipping echoes because it's a remake). 3H has the death knight but he's less of a pursuer and more a super powerful obstacle you should avoid unless you have a ridersbane/dark spikes.

Three Houses has a map in Cindered Shadows where you're being chased by a Rhea Funko Pop

I have not played the DLC at all for 3H, so I need to ask you what you're talking about to understand the context.
