If they weren't meant to be made why go threw the trouble of designing the crawlers.
I never meant the crawlers themselves being an accident, but I mean the reason people like and use them. It could have just been a feature to make you think a zombie is dead and then it hits you on the floor and it could kill you. Also makes them harder to kill.
Whether or not they put it in there also to use it as a break during a round, who knows. Maybe they did, maybe they didn't and they saw that people did it and it was a great elaboration on a feature
