Poaching sous vide eggs?

I just had a thought: if you did some sous vide eggs in advance (135F for 75 mins), a bunch at a time, could you then poach multiple eggs all at once in a water-filled skillet because the sous vide process would have thickened the white enough to keep them from spreading (without whirl pooling)?

Not what you're after, but I've made great "poached" eggs in the instant pot. 2 min, quick release, into an ice bath. Perfect every time.

Wouldn't that be soft-boiled?

Kinda...Not really boiled...pressure cooked. They come out of the shells looking like perfectly round poached eggs though.
Oeufs mollet: poached in the shell.

If you poach eggs by whatever method you like, then chill well, they can be dropped in boiling water for a minute and will be perfect.
