Actually, they do, they just don't clear it. The final form of 5-4 doesn't have a ship that can hurt subs so they just get to final form and never kill it.

From the 5-4 tips section: "There are people who intentionally choose not to clear this map, they do this for ranking purpose as the final version of this boss does not include ships that hurt SS and thus it allow SS to B-win or above this node fairly easy and thus making the node stay in its final formation help boosting player's senka."
