There is of course also the possibility that the mechanic somehow differs from red to blue, but that seems unlikely. I wouldn't dismiss it so quickly. I'd toy with it a bit.
If I am understanding you correctly, then you are absolutely incorrect in your understanding of how sneak pulling works, at least in regards to the mechanics on the blue server. I can't speak for red with experience.

You suggest that I'm bound to notice it eventually, and while you don't seem to realize it, this suggestion weakens your argument immensely. It suggests that you are only seeking evidence that supports your theory and ignoring any evidence that contradicts it. If what you claim is true, it would happen every time. I've split pulled with sneak more times than you have hair on your head, and the actual behavior of the mobs during these pulls contradicts your theory 99% of the time.

also i have no idea what this maskedmelon guy is talking about in regards to sneaking while feigning having any bearing on how/when mobs will turn around to path back
I'm willing to bet that Colgate understands the mechanics on Red better than you do. Animals are pattern-seeking, and you have clearly identified a pattern that does not actually exist.

Just because you haven't noticed or don't understand a mechanic doesn't mean it works the way you think it does.
You should really take your own advice here and make an honest attempt to disprove your own theory.
