So, at the moment, it's not only "humans" being capable to better defend themselves... it is also humans being able to break the chains of the curse; if they survives this titan leader attack. So yes, to me it really makes senses that Erwin push himself forward, even a little bit more.

Also, i believe that on the front they are just putting up a good show, to win more time. And that the real battle, in fact, is at the back (where they sent their best troops/strongest assets), by fighting and winning over both titan shifters... which would be a situation with no precedent.

Again, Eren's team is aiming at killing both titans, without the titan shifter leader knowing how they did...

So yes, in the end, the troops down there might just be a luring game, to keep the titan leader busy, where the real stuff is going to happen in the backyard.

Last but not least,  I wonder if Eren will have to eat the armored titan flesh ? He doesn't know it, but yes, he may be ordered to eat Rainer's flesh. The Armor being a strong asset for a titan to survive the attack of other titans. Like he already had to eat the flesh of his own father, as a child. After that, they should also be somehow capable to use the asset of the high wall to protect themselves.
