+- **Loose walls release from their face (t93, 2026-10-28).** The owner wants tall loose
+  rubble faces to collapse quickly toward a pile instead of shedding one surface layer at
+  a time. An open diagonal step with another empty grain below it bypasses the sticky delay;
+  shallow steps retain the material's stickiness. A legal sticky step that misses its chance
+  keeps its chunk awake to retry. Burning fuel beds keep their tuned settling behavior.
+  Grain stamps, sealed corners, transport barriers and per-chunk random streams still apply.
