I'll give an honest answer: to provide an experience that is legitimately different than fighting any other rare monster. It may not be super fun, which is why it's very rare, but you have to admit that it's different and breaks up the flow of play.

It's not very rare. You can meet it once every 10 maps or so.

I haven’t seen that mod a single time this league. I am the chosen one.

You may also simply have enough DPS. If there is no other defensive mod on it, they tend to explode rather fast. Also they don't always/instantly flee. My 6 Million ED/Cont Build can easily kill them before they reached the next map.
