Would expect some route optimization, there's spots where it bomb hops around corridor before proceeding. Seems like it could see running straight through would result in same game state sooner

But I'm probably viewing this from TAS perspective instead of fuzzer perspective

The longer you run it, the cleaner the run gets. But Metroid is a very compute-intensive game to fuzz, and we were already nearing the limits of what BigQuery could do for us with that run.
