Hey quick question, if i (a werewolf who's constantly wrestling with my own inhumanity, who both resents the fact that humans view werewolves as mindless monsters, and yet is also all-too-aware that my own werewolf family are cruel despots who deserve to die) ever snapped and became like my brother (embraced the monstrosity which i am sure grows even now within me) would you (my boyfriend, my walking moral compass, a Good Man to your very core) be strong enough to hunt me down and stop me? Yes? Cool, great, love you

Trolling aside, i think there is some great importance as to why Gege chose this specific manner of panelling for the Yuji-Sukuna confrontation in JJK 264. We can't help but think that Gege's trying to show us some sort of a parallel between Gojo and Sukuna in this situation.
In JJK, there's this interesting notion of one's decision to go "North" or "South" as explained by Nanami during Gojo's death Flashback:
And we all know, that chapter of Gojo's death is titled as "Go South", which highly implies that Gojo chose to stay as who he was, as opposed to starting as something completely anew.
Now the interesting point in the Yuuji-Sukuna confrontation is that apparently...
....the destination for the supposed train within Yuuji's domain...is "North".
Which means that Yuuji's taking Sukuna towards the North.......
They're heading towards the North.....do you guys understand what that means?? For BOTH of them??? Q C Q

More Cheery Littlebottom, talking to Vimes (her commanding officer, hence the "sir"):
"Is that what you'll be wearing, Cheery?"
"Yes, sir."
"But it's just... ordinary dwarf clothes. Trousers and everything."
"Yes, sir."
"But Sybil said you'd got a fetching little green number and a helmet with a feather in it."
"Yes, sir."
"You're free to wear whatever you want, you know that."
"Yes, sir. And then I thought about Dee. And I watched the king when he was talking to you, and... well, I can wear what I like, sir. That's the point. I don't have to wear that dress. I can wear what I like. I don't have to wear something just because other people don't want me to. Anyway, it made me look a rather stupid lettuce."
-- Terry Pratchett,The Fifth Elephant (emphasis on "don't" added by me because I think it's important)
One of the many things that Sir Terry was excellent at is writing characters that start out as caricatures, and end up being the realest people ever. Cheery Littlebottom, who by the name is obviously a throwaway ridiculous character. And dwarfs in general (on Discworld, dwarfs and humans are two of many intelligent species) are absurd. Dwarfs sing songs about gold, they make inedible bread that's mostly used as weapons, they all have beards and wear helmets and carry axes. And yet. By the time you finish the book, real.
Now about Discworld dwarfs and gender. In dwarf society, gender is largely ignored and almost irrelevant; all dwarfs use the same pronouns, dress the same, do the same jobs. Gender-based discrimination can't even exist! I mean. Women in the real world have been fighting for this sort of equality for decades, right?
But it's not quite right. There's "equal," and then there's "being exactly the same as everyone else." So there are dwarfs who rebel against the homogeneous status quo by choosing to use different pronouns (she/her), and wear dresses and makeup.
Gender expression! It's a battle against the old ways, but dwarfs are good at fighting.
