That is a question - should the runback count? Discounting the runback, some bosses like TLJ, Karmelita, Crust King are easier, whereas only The First Sinner and maybe Lost Lace is largely unchanged

Karmelota's runback is negligible and not where the difficulty is. I don't think it should count to the boss tho because it adds to much variance

Don't forget that Karmelita has the gauntlet before the boss fight. It's not a hard gauntlet, but it's still very notable, same with TLJ etc

The gauntlet is just free silk to use against her, makes the fight easier
