    There was a 73% chance at the level it crashed that any single line clear would have caused it and the percentage only goes up from there. That is why there are theoretically more that could be accomplished since there is still a chance it won’t crash but is very unlikely.

      I reckon completing level 255 isn’t going to happen for human players on the NES. They are pushing the input hardware beyond it’s design to play the levels they’re at now, and also crashes become more common at higher levels making a clean run to 255 even harder

        Don’t underestimate the gaming community. Once people get more comfortable with reaching higher levels someone will develope a strategy.

        If you look into it, the only limiting factor are the colour pallets glitching out, after level 29 it does t become any faster, but at a certain point the palates were causing hard points as one level named charcoal was barely visible.
