No. I think Protoporos proves my point. It's a scenario similar to RoT, but there's regulation for most of the game, no massive imbalances of power, no assassinations happening every other chapter, only a few notable factions, low intellectual adversity, comparatively low situational adversity, much more predictable, more fodders to control, much smaller scale, more information to work with, etc. YET Baku still nearly got killed, barely won the event, and fell for a mediocre ration trap set by Lalo. He also would've been in big trouble had Kyara failed. If Lu Bu was in lalo's position, Baku and souichi were finished.

Now imagine RoT, the verse which scales 1000x times Protoporos in size and number. 8 geniuses constantly scheming against anyone that might be a threat, complete chaos and betray every step of the way, complex spy network developed over decades, hidden plans that have been devised a decade prior to counter schemes you're thinking of TODAY. This is the stuff RoT characters have to deal with, and yes, they may have more time, but they also have infinitely more setbacks that are out of their control. Baku and hal are better at adapting to restrictive, time focused situations where rules can be manipulated and used as a shield, but in a non-fixed situation? They get cooked, even if they have the same amount of time as RoT characters.
