Here's why I think the Gojo bait is not great writing and why you should maybe think so too (Spoilers till jjk 260).
We've spent the last few chapter consistently establishing a few things about our protagonist (Yuuji) and our antagonist(Sukuna).
1. Yuuji's father's soul is a reincarnation of Sukuna's twin: This instantly creates a connection between Sukuna and Yuuji.
As if you needed one outside of Sukuna's constant mockery of his former vessel's lack of "competance", and that most of yuuji's biggest losses can be attributed to Sukuna, building his wrath brick by brick. But surely adds to it all.
2. Yuuji feels incredibly lonely right now: Anyone he's created any sort of meaningful (?) Bond with outside of just 'hey you're an ally I can fight alongside with' is currently either dead or greatly incapacitated.
3. Also ofc the absolute damage that Yuuji has started incurring on sukuna. Damage that the slew of sorcerors before him couldn't. Forget about everyone teaching him abou love, Yuuji will show him Burning Rage.
This while also having hinted at Yuuji being possibly strong enough to do so on his own. He can go head to head with the King Of Curses with or without the help of his fellow sorcerors once he is able to harness this power.
Anything that was Gojo vs Sukuna feels absolutely irrelevant with the build up that Gege themself has been creating through the past few chapters.
Gojo's form right at the end of the chapter undercuts the pacing completely. Readers are more interested in those last 2 panels of Gojo which are completely removed from and rather jarring to the buildup between Yuuji and Sukuna. Fan interest in Gojo isn't their fault because that's what the chapter makes you focus on.
The only way I see this continue the buildup is if this is somehow Yuuji's doing or done with his knowledge, in which case it'd have been better to end the chapter by showing that Yuuji is aware of it and has an ace up his sleeve, bringing it back to the 2 relevent characters, and for people to stew in what Yuuji could be up to for a week.
But no matter what Gojo's visage there means, Yuuji in this moment has been so greatly undermined, not by his lack of strength, not by Sukuna outright demeaning him, but by the writing itself. By Gege.
And oh, how Yuuji deserves better.

read up on natlan just now (since i quit gnshn since ~4.4 and am out of the loop, lit only watched that teaser yesterday w no info bc anon mentioned capitano)
and what it and some characters are actually based on/taking inspiration from (deities etc from different cultures) its really really bad now that i fully realize the story/info behind in connection with the characters i saw yesterday. we already mentioned how pale everyone is (again) and i didnt dare mentioning im disappointed w the archons design (not what i expected) to not attract unwanted arguments but the whole deity borrowing and blatant disrespect... sumeru was already a mess and they still havent learned a bit at all. dont steal or take insp of a culture and exclude the people, its the same thing all over again. sorry to the affected ppl, i hope they realize they really messed up (again) and make changes

This is how the LFC squad would react to you explaining what osmosis is (you can also think of whatever your specific area/beloved topic is)
Trent: He would nod along for the whole time, focused and very serious, then make the most generic, NPC statement like. "I have always been a big admirer of osmosis." When you would go ??? he would then actually give up, have a laugh at himself, then ask for an easier explanation, because he's also generally interested in whatever you have to say.
Virg: He would hear you out, pat you on the shoulder and say, "that's great! 👍🏼 😃". Then leave.
Cody: Very thoughtful listener. Would actually get a pen and paper and start making notes, meanwhile complementing your intelligence.
Darwin: "???😁"
Macca: Laughs awkwardly. Gets red in the face when he would mispronounce osmosis and you correct him.
Mo: He would definitely know what osmosis and would be happy to engage about it.
Domi: "Osmo-what?"Starts laughing, because "it's a funny sounding word."
Ali: He knows what osmosis is and will let you know that. Tries to correct you on one thing, looks it up on google, then apologies for doubting you.
Jota: Knows what osmosis is, just doesn't really give a fuck.
Harvey: Doesn't know what osmosis is, and also doesn't really care.
Curtis: Also starts laughing at the 'osmosis', but then quickly apologizes to not hurt your feelings. Willing to listen to you talking about it, despite having absolutely no clue what is even going on, because he feels bad for laughing.
Joe: Has a oOH! moment when you mention osmosis and he can vaguely recall it from his studies.
Endo: Asks polite questions about osmosis.
Klopp: Invented osmosis.
