Depends on the type and tuning of the algorithm vs. the shape of the real engagement data (2+ order effects are harder to predict), also on scale (generally more input & consistent historical data yield better predictions)

Other theories: poor caching model, an opaque engagement invalidation strategy (e.g. post processing to see if user saw more than N pixel rows), aliens. I’m sure whoever built the feature would be sad to see this behavior.
