Gravshaft jumping

One thing that occured to me and may be completely false, but... when you jump down the upwards gravshaft on earth, you get down down surprisingly deep, about halfway through, before anti-gravity does its magic.
Now when you jump down the gravshaft above the corridor of doom on engineering you get down considerably less. I assume it's because the gravshaft is shorter, ie the way you can get down is relative to the length of the shaft? If this is so, then what would happen if the engineering gravshaft would be extending below the corridor level? Would you be able to play knock knock on a hybrid's head that's been following you? Or would it fall down the shaft? What would happen if another hybrid followed? Would it stand on top of the first?

As far as I'm aware, AIs don't care about gravity. They just want to be on the ground. They really, really want to be on the ground.

They're not goombas K...

According to a speed runner's notes I've read, when you jump into a grav shaft, your "momentum" is added to the boost given by the grav shaft. So depending on how you jump into it, you can go really speedy. As opposed to jumping at a bad angle or walking straight into it where you'll instead be slow.

But can you extend gravshafts at all? I vaguely seem to remember they come at two fixed sizes.

And sometimes I feel that it may be too short.
