<kernelmethod> There is a really weird interaction with hexagonal crystals, force bubbles, and phasing that can make it incredibly easy to violate the Pauli exclusion principle when phased + force bubbled on an empty tile in the Moon Stair (RIP my last two saves 🥲).

For example: suppose you are phased out while standing on the tile below and surrounded by a force bubble (purple line). Normally, you wouldn't expect to die from Pauli exclusion because although you're surrounded by forcefields, the tile you're standing in is empty (and this is in fact the behavior you see in every other region).

However, running this experiment several times, I (repeatedly and consistently) die from Pauli exclusion; see the second and third screenshots. It seems that under the hood, there's some odd interaction with the part of the force bubble clipping into the hexagonal crystals that's causing this to happen; you can verify this by e.g. obliterating the crystal first and comparing (you shouldn't trigger Pauli exclusion after doing so).
