Quoted from bam10:I think that I’m not clear about what is being called “pooling”.
Because the lay tend to be the most vocal here and mob rules.
The behavior is more like 'pinching' or displacement - not a surface tension thing like pooling would suggest. It's just bad terms repeated forever so ppl stick to them.
But it's a lost cause... see similar dissent over a year ago - https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/continued-playfield-issues-with-jjp-and-stern/page/13#post-5177649
