Absolutely. But I think the “more easily obtained” doesn’t come from elevating the boxer to being able to be as adept as the same size group piloted by real humans. It comes from the fact that a boxer’s capabilities are persistent/always there. You don’t have to wait for friends to be online or available.
The solo player is going to look at the boxer with more disdain than the player who has a standing invite with 4 friends on the regular.
