Makes me think that at the end of the day Orochimaru/Log still somewhat manipulated Mitsuki into the concept/idea of having a 'sun' to begin with rather than him leaving the two of them behind, recollecting what just happened and coming up with his own path. I've actually heard an interesting theory a while back (don't remember the details 'cuz I didn't save the link :/) that concluded with Orochimaru being somewhat aware of the events that are going to happen regarding Kara, and Boruto's role during said events (his doujutsu), so he created Mitsuki for the sole purpose of giving Boruto additional manpower.
