There's a mod made by mike9k1 called Better Battle AI that solves this issue. As for me I don't use it, I place all my characters to follow orders and play like any traditional turn based RPG.

I do too for most fights, but when I'm backtracking or grinding for materials, I don't feel like playing out every single fight.

The AI is actually pretty good all things told, as far as which enemy within a group to target. But it seems to prioritize highest damage and not really synergizing with the actions of other party members.

Have you tried experimenting with the different behaviors? One of them really is "just use the strongest ♥♥♥♥ you have". But there are other modes

"Hero, fight wisely!" "Duh okay boss, I'll use gigaslash every fight, regardless of threat, even if there's only one single enemy."

Focus on healing is a bit better, since they'll cure status ailments, try to raise people, and will heal even if the target isn't QUITE below half.

I don't get mix it up, but it seems like they use status moves and buffs/debuffs a lot on that setting? not sure though.

Yes, let's use up all our MP on weak enemies!

I am playing through for the first time but I am using "Mix it Up" on zones that I already covered as at least you can see what works/doesn't work on certain enemies.

I think "Mix it Up" just means random behavior. Probably more of a gag thing
