Don't those usually refer to single entity traversing maze? Not something that can just grow in all directions

The process for finding a specific random point in a maze usually involves 75%+traversal. It doesn't matter if you're a single entity or not, as the slime mold is just effective running it all in parallel.

Even given the location of an exit, most solvers still end up searching most of the map before finding it.
