I don’t thinks so. It’s a bit like in a breakout game where the ball gets “stuck” behind some blocks and clears a ton of them by bouncing back and forth between them.
The ball can wedge itself between cells that are touching and then it penetrates 5-6 cells in clearing the whole path instantly (probably as it's bouncing between the 0 pixel gap between cells).
I had just started the sim and the left ball on its first or second bounce suddenly took a major section of the right side.
