Why the script haven't found a spaceship? It's too slow! It's too slow.

I realize that this meme itself comes from a non-CA context; however I believe that it fits here because it does accurately describe a lot of CA searches.

I think there are enough exceptions, when something turns out easier to find than expected.
When I ran searches (using gencols + apgsearch stdin) in B357/S238 I didn't initially expect to find anything remarkable. I managed to find a (big, slow, but working) periodic reflector with a transparent block, and enough "pair of c/2o puffer engines" track components to be able to construct a gun.
