[BUG] 2 Hive bugs: inconsistent FT damage --- Grenades bounce on sides

Greetings,
I've been messing around in Explore mode and I think I've found 2 bugs.
1) Inconsistent Flamethrower damage on hive.
I've tried emptying full gas cans on the hive, obtaining different results at times.
Most of the times I'd deal 1936 damage (including the burning effect).
But, more often when shooting the yellow sides of the hive, looking upwards, I was able to deal up to 2365 damage (including burning).
From 1936 to 2365 it's a 22% increase, it's no small difference.
On the wiki FT page I haven't seen any kind of variable damage, so I assume it's a glitch.
I've tested this with both Crags near the hive and without (I feared the crags had a % to extinguish flames, just like Heal Spray, thus producing inexact data).
I can't 100% reproduce it, but if you experiment a few angles and distances it's not hard to achieve.
The other weapons' damage is unaffected.
2) Hive sides (yellow parts) bounce grenades.
This is 100% reproducible.
Instead of exploding on impact, grenades bounce. Is this a feature or what?
I assume it's a glitch, since all the other weapons can damage the sides just like any other section of the hive...
and in a game without headshots and weakspots, this would indeed be weird.
