The prison area was key to sealing Gozo
Any fan of the series expected Gozo Satoru to be sealed in the second season of Jujutsu Kaisen. The fact is this Gozo is the strongest magician in the modern eraAnd maybe someone can stand him up.

Gojo's seal was extremely important to the plot at that moment because if he had been around, Shibuya would surely have been finished in a matter of seconds. Gojo was so strong that no one in Shibuya could threaten him in the slightestAnd all the fights would have ended with Gozo completely dominating, resulting in a rather underwhelming arc.
Gozo had to be cut out of the plot in order for the other characters to advance their stories in different ways. For example, Nanami's plot would definitely not have ended if Gozo had been there. At the same time, fans also know that Yuji would not have eaten all the fingers if Gozo had been in Shibuya. In any case, it's clear that Gozo's imprint was necessary for the story to go in the direction Gage wanted, and that's why the story is as exciting as it is now.
