Ok, here's something... I adjusted my address_cost hook to figure costs of offsets more accurately, and even though it only tests "offset" vs "no offset", it does seem to prefer the working case (no offset, vs negative offset) more. Not sure how many tests it will fix, but it fixes at least the one I reported. On to testing...
