I have always wondered why offensive tackles retreat to set up the angle to block quick pass rushers
and leave themselves so exposed to getting overpowered bercause of that retreat move. I always thought they should engage first because they would get the jump at the snap, have a physical advantage, and then retreat for the angle leverage, after at least giving a physiical engagement..

Exactly!! It's called the "jump set" and it was one of Zack Martin's basic techniques.

Interesting one of the best players and few do it now. Martin would go years without giving up a
sack or get holding called on him.
