Question : do you / did you encounter situations were bot slowing was not optional, but mandatory to reach a specific goal?

I know bot slowing in SE is used extensively to reduce upgrade needs, where possible. It is also used to reduce the difficulty level of specific races.

To me it happens often when bots are on a high difficulty level because of a streak of big wins, I encounter Hunter events with unattainable goals. Even using an FU car, no assists, using all the short-cuts possible, and with an acceptable racing skill I am not able to win the race by far. Often the bot is in name of a (very skilled) team mate but not always.

In these cases I have mandatory to reduce the goal by bot slowing.
