Took another crack at 5-1 boss and had no trouble at all. Went and freed Sage Freke.
As you know of course though, one step forward, one massive, head-first, backward dive off a cliff
I got to the end of 4-2 again, and thought I'd turn human to give him a shot as human. Baaaad idea. Got him to 40%, but on dying, realised that the death in human form had pushed me to black tendency. Now, everyone hits like a truck, and in one particularly late, and precariously-staged part of the level, there's three very tough, and very HP-rich phantoms, along with the manta ray bastards. I've bashed my head against it a bunch more times and am not having a good time trying to figure a way through, or around. Even getting to that point is now non-trivial.
From what I read about tendency, beating bosses in a given world helps return things to white - does this work if you do it in other players' worlds? I can go plop my summon sign down outside the 4-1 boss, win, and then kill myself in the Nexus to help steer me back to neutral? It sounds tedious, but also far less tedious than trying my luck trying to pick off these phantom skeletons one by one and then trying to get them off a cliff.

to go to Pure Black World Tendency and then find a named Black Phantom. Must be a named one, can't be a regular enemy. In your case you may not have seen him in his human form but he is there at the start of 4-1 on the bridge. From PBWT killing him will put you back to neutral world tendency. Might be difficult though as the named Black Phantoms have a health pool of over 2000, maybe more.

I know they work well on the regular skeletons for distracting them long enough for you to get past.

This really broke me for a few days - so much so that I went and played Bugsnax for a few days to bring my frustration down
