Well you can say the same thing about Goku and Freeza, they hadn't even met face to face before they fought each other.
I don't think Gohan needed more buildup for his role to work because the story had been paralleling his journey with Goku's since the first arc he debuted, and he was already said to have the potential to be vastly stronger as time went on.
The culmination of it is the Cell arc where Gohan has to succeed his father and take up the mantle as hero. It's a pre
A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.What If: Gohand did beat Super Boo, but Kid Boo still happened?
No setup, but just an idea.
Seeing how they all died anyway, skipping Vegetto seems the way to go.

Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.Though at least with Vegetto it's not like he "failed". He did exactly what he was trying to do, just unforeseen circumstances couldn't leave him intact.
I know this is probably a dead horse at this point, but how do you feel about the retcon about the Potara not being permeant (for non-Kais, anyway) versus just the atmosphere of Buu's insides or whatever somehow undoing it?

They're still separated by their win-loss-tie ratio.

Wasn't that also established in Super?
They probably shouldn't have done even that, Kibito Kai among the other Supreme Kai could've been something.

Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.Well the reason Kibito even exists is because Toriyama didn't know what to do with Kibito (or Shin for that matter).
And yeah, the time limit for non Kais was really dumb when we had already established that the dragon balls could reverse Potara Fusion.
Toriyama's tendency to do anything to get the plot how he wants can be a drawback sometimes.
One Strip! One Strip!Them unfusing in Buu's guts felt like a damnable ass pull anyway, not helped by the flimsy handwaving
Forever liveblogging the AvengersThere never really was an explanation really, which I suppose is why he came up with the fusion earring time limit for mortals thing.
I wish he'd come up with anything beyond that however.
One Strip! One Strip!I wish I knew more about the production side of things for the Buu Saga because if an ex-editor can influence the direction of Toriyama's plot just by mocking his character designs, I want to know what was going on during the Buu Saga.
Maybe a disaffected teenager sat next to him the whole time he worked, scoffing 'whatever' and 'boring' whenever he discussed the plot.

Forever liveblogging the AvengersWell, Kibito went away after defusing anyway. Might as well kept them fused and let their uniqueness be commented on Universally.

Super Saiyan God: Beat Kale and Caulifla.
Super Saiyan Blue: Beat Golden Freeza (Freeza running out of stamina counts as a win), Cabba, SSR Black, Krillin, Space Poachers, the Trio De Dangers, Ribrianne, and Anilaza with teamwork.
Golden Freeza: Beat U9 assassins, Cabba, Anilaza with teamwork, base Dyspo, and beat base Toppo with teamwork.
Super Saiyan Blue Kaioken: Basically beat Hit. Beat initial Merged Zamasu, Bergamo, and Gohan.
The Magical Girls: Literally no-one laughed at them aside from Freeza, who chuckles at everything. Ribrianne beat Jirasen, base Goku, and 18 until 18 made a comeback.
Super Saiyan 2 Cabba: Beat Monna.
Kale, both Crazy and In Control: Beat almost all of the Pride Troopers as well as SS2 Goku.
Muscular Caulifla: Grade 3 was never meant to achieve anything, not before and not here.
Kafla: Beat Goku in SSG, SSB, and SSB KK.
Ultra Instinct "Omen": Beat SS2 Kafla.
Super Saiyan Blue Evolution: Beat God Toppo.
Ultra Instinct: We haven't seen it lose yet. I would also say this is basically the same form as Ultra Instinct "Omen", just like how Grade 4 is almost never counted as separate from Super Saiyan 1.
To contrast:
SS2: Beat the Cell Jrs, Cell, Yakon, maybe present Zamasu, Goku and Caulifla went back and forth, both in this form, but neither actually secured a win.
SS3: Beat SS2 Future Trunks.
