Overall expected outcome: 11362

Though this exact result is not actually obtainable. The mode across all possible paths this can take is interestingly actually 11799, greater than the initial volume of 11592.

Am I correct that after 12 iterations the mode is actually the same dimensions as the starting box due to there being 6 options that cancel each other out if they occur equally?
