ok, changing directions to try a spawnBot instead of explorerBot algorithm. so far just added new (vague) specs and commented out old specs and code. going to actually code the new spawnBot on a new branch by that name.
oh my god this doesnt work why doesn't it fucking work.
hmm some progress finally. returning good answers for some networks, but not others. problems with networks with reversible nodes--add reversed nodes. not sure what's going wrong. trailMemory is being lost-- why? how? node A keeps appearing without remembering Z, where they start. whence the amnesiac nodes?
