Agreed - as Rick said, shifting only requires that a figure stay
adjacent to another enemy.

I agree as well, except that it's technically no longer a "shift" in
terms of the rules, and is why a disengage action must be done. You
all know I love to cite the rules, so here I go... Section V.
Movement of basic Melee states:

Shifting

Only disengaged figures have options that let them move their full
MA. An engaged figure may move only one hex during movement, and must
stay adjacent to all figures to which it is engaged; this is called a
"shift" in the list of options.

For example, an engaged figure can "shift" during movement, but it
can also "disengage" (another one-hex movement) during its action
phase.
