Gollux's Jaw's Difficulty Locked

Bug type: Functionality (?)
(Would call it 'Gameplay Mechanics')

Upon entering Gollux Head room, leaving it and killing it's other body parts won't change Gollux's Difficulty. Both it's HP and Skills (OHKO-Pink-Suck-In or Hand-Smashes) stay even if certain/all body parts get destroyed.
An old issue (since Gollux's introduction I think) but easily avoidable before Gollux Revamp; just don't enter the Head first. A solution which is no longer applicable as the spawn point was changed from ground at boss's feet to the exact Gollux Head room where you must not enter before changing boss's difficulty. So you are now permanently stuck with Hell Gollux.

Pre-Revamp side note: This used to only apply to Head's current state (either Jaw, Eyes or Gem). Everything changed to proper difficulty once the state was pushed forward (e.g. Jaw got killed) including rewards. Don't know how it is now.

    There are two types of keys. "Fragile" which takes you to the old spawn point on the ground by the legs, and "Fallen" which is a shortcut directly to the head.
    Use the "Fragile" key if you don't want to fight Hell Gollux.

    I'm unsure what you mean by the boss entry point being Gollux's head. The Fallen Gollux keys were changed to move you directly to the head as mentioned in the patch notes, but the standard key you get daily from the Heart Tree Guardian NPC will teleport you to the feet as normal.
