Perhaps it refers back to 8:33?
Even when all of life is against us, we are still “more than conquerors” and
God will strengthen us to live out that glorious victory every day, in spite of
how things look to us, or how we feel about our circumstances. (vs. 33).
We are victorious over all those who would challenge our relationship with
the Lord. God has justified us and nothing will ever change His mind.

Romans 8 is about God's Love for us ----nothing can separated us from God's Agape -----
The Greek word for More than conquerors is
Strong's Concordance
hupernikaó: to be more than conqueror
Usage: I am more than conqueror, prevail mightily.
HELPS Word-studies
5245 hypernikáō (from 5228 /hypér, "beyond" and 3528 /nikáō, "conquer") – properly, exceedingly conquer, being "more than a conqueror," i.e. "super-conqueror" who is "completely and overwhelmingly victorious" (L & N, 1, 39.58). 5245 (hypernikáō) is used only in Ro 8:37.
[The intensive prefix (hyper) adds the idea, "surpassing victory" (i.e. of a pre-eminent conqueror).]
I say ----------we are Overcomers ----Because of God's Agape for us we have the Strength to overcome things that we would never be able to overcome without God's Agape for us ------
Romans 8
Our Victory in Christ
26 In the same way the Spirit [comes to us and] helps us in our weakness
28 And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a plan] for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to His plan and purpose.
31 What then shall we say to all these things? If God is for us, who can be [successful] against us?
32 He who did not spare [even] His own Son, but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also, along with Him, graciously give us all things?
33 Who will bring any charge against God’s elect (His chosen ones)?
I say
We are ---more than conquerors -----and Nothing that can come against us can can ever pull us away from God's Agape for His Children ------this is so powerful and so uplifting and so encouraging -----God's Strength is imparted to us through His Agape for us ------and nothing can destroy that Love

Do you have any thoughts about the possibility that the description of more than conquerors might suggest how we conquer or overcome as you suggest?
You trust in and rely on God who Loves you and will give you the Strength and Protection and Ability to overcome any storm ---misery ----mountain etc that comes against you ------
In the end, as we exercise faith, God intervenes and not only defeats the enemy but uses what the enemy has employed to defeat us to defeat him. Could this be a plausible explanation for why we are not just conquerors, but more than conquerors in Him who loves us?
