I assume, there is a psychical and a mathematical effect (may be the same ?).
Psychical (that's not my profession!) effect belongs to associativities with
descendig down to cellars, caves, pits and mines, where it's cold and narrow - or instead with
ascending hills, mountains, visit points, where it's free and solved.
Mathematical effect belongs to theory of sequences, that's a row of figures with a build-up law for next figure.
If the sequence is decreasing, there is a statistically higher chance for an absolute limit. Puzzle authors like to avoid this.
May be there exists the Law of Diminishing puzzle results for minimizer ?!?
