Thoughts on Semi Tunneling to Psyche Out Survivors?

Just fancied sharing a little story, and I was wondering if anyone else does this?

So I was playing Spirit the other day in Chaos Shuffle, and I had a Felix using a purple flashlight, full add-ons. People who listen to my rambling crap often (appreciate the tolerance) may recall I tend to avoid camping and tunneling as much as possible, and usually adhere to a "6 hook before sacrifice" rule. However as I've gone up against better and better survivors, sticking to this rule gets tougher, especially when you're getting constantly harrassed by a player with a flashlight around pallets.

Now I have a personal theory that Spirit is way more fun to play against if she isn't playing the tunnel a survivor off hook strategy... and especially on someone strong like her, my little rule above feels more important to stick to. While playing her without a proper build however, playing this way is actually kinda tough...

So back to my game, I was struggling a little for my first down; I was scoring hits, but I kept getting body blocked/had people running scratch mark interference. I normally run Stridor to allow me to hear whimpering and survivor sounds better, but catching up to a just hit survivor can prove tough with people crossing over the scratches and blood drops don't happen at the right times. Anyway, I finally scored a down on the Meg, and I picked up facing the wall... but not enough though it seems, as Felix was able to shine a light on my ear and blind me. 🙄

So because I was already a little slow off the mark this game, I quickly identified this player was gonna be a problem. Even though he was full health, I had 2 survivors injured, 1 who has just healed, I decided I needed this player to not be involved in any of my future chases. So I gunned after him, pushing Spirit to just do Spirit things and downed him reasonably quickly to throw him on hook.

As I say I don't camp, but I chased and hit a nearby Claudette and injured her. At this moment I saw Meg going to unhook Felix, I quickly chased after, and as she unhooked I was able to score a hit as she unhooked. Normally at this point I'd go for Meg; she has no speed boost left, she's a 1 hit down, near a hook... but at this moment I triggered my Haunting and I ran Felix down. He made it to a weak pallet but I counted out the BT and was able to mind game for a down. I threw him back on the hook for stage 2.

I was at this point I went back to playing like normal, I ignkred him in a couplenof chases cause he was very wary of me, and I didn't actually kill Felix until hook 7... but doing this I noticed not only was he much less keen to run interference, but I also noticed the whole team began to run less interference as well. I assume mostly because they knew they had to go for gens as Felix is now Dead on Hook.

This was the strongest example to date that I've seen of a total shift in survivor attitude, but I've used this strategy a few times before. Has anyone else experienced/enjoyed this phenomenon?

Bonus Point: There have been times where I've seen a survivor still not care, and go for big bombastic plays with risky saves while on death hook, despite a nearby Claudette being on 0 hook stages... at these moments I've had to decide whether or not to break my 6 hook rule because... if you're gonna throw yourself in the killers face while on death hook... I should kill you out of respect right?
