Does Dropping A Surv With High Wiggle Progress Auto-Escape Them?

I've noticed this quite often when I'm trying to drop a survivor. IDK if the server is just lagging and its detecting the survivor's struggle completion before my drop, or if this is an intended feature, but it seems whenever I try and drop a survivor who has wiggled a fair bit, my character is auto-stunned.

    If the Survivors' wiggle bar is at ~75% or higher, they'll automatically escape if you drop them. Each time you drop a Survivor, they'll gain wiggle progression, hence why if you drop a Survivor 4 times, they'll escape your grasp.

    Oh nobody aswered this thread, i was in the middle of my daily shitposting but i will stop here to explain this to you. Every time you drop a survivor their wiggle bar is auto-filled with a certain amount, the maximum drops you can do with a killer is 3 and the 4th one is gonna stun you as if they wiggled off your shoulder. This prevents the killer from dropping a survivor as long as he wants and when he wants (for example you drop one surv to smack another 2 and then just take the downed one again and go on the other side of the map with him). Remember, 3 times, no more than that. And you need to learn when you can drop, the wiggle timer is about 14 seconds.
