Personally, I don't see the spitting as such an enormous thing to focus on. Blinding an opponent is one of the oldest tricks in the book, whether you do it by throwing or spitting something in their face.

Defiant/insulting spits usually just kinda go for the general face. It's not about any sort of tactical advantage, and usually you see someone just kinda spit on another person's cheek or something.

Mutsuki waited for him to lean in close and then aimed for his open eyes. So it seems less about any sort of personal statement, and more just doing whatever was necessary to knock him off-balance. And it worked.
