Yeah after finishing Manic Miner I thought I'd have a good nose at Jet Set Willy. I don't think Ian Davidson did a bad job on them to be honest even with said bugs. You can jump better through stairs and stuff than the C64 version. The 32K version of JSW is really nice too and plenty to keep anyone busy and it also runs on a 32K C16!
But yeah maybe it was left like it to keep us wondering lol. 
There is another bug and if your lucky your get to see it... If your in mid jump as you leave a screen then sometimes you can teleport a couple of screens past the one you were going to go on. It can't be done on said screen with the barrel tho because the following screen beyond the next is blocked off and does not allow jumping at the start of the walk way.
Real shame I never asked Ian Davidson about his work on Jet Set Willy back when I had a chat via email with him. Kinda skipped my mind.
