It's not like the Havok-using version of HL2 right now on Steam is free from physics bugs. Bugs can be fixed.

Of course, just feels like a physics engine is a few steps harder than many other dependencies.

For example, one of the bugs might be inadvertently relied on in one of the map puzzles, unbeknownst to the map creator.

Yeah I've heard that it's Havok with a bunch of Valve changes and fixes on top. So presumably it's a fairly outdated version of Havok.
