Maybe it was intentional since Xenos can't exactly grab a crowbar,also it is acid so it does melt through objects...but like I said MAYBE it was intentional.

its just a fairly rare bug/feature where obstructions have no set denial of reach (ex can melt doors through blast doors) and is present in almost every code because it's unnecessary and not a frequent occurrence so it doesn't make it a priority
from an IC standpoint, grilles aren't completely solid objects and acid dripping onto wires isn't really that difficult to imagine, and i doubt theres more than a few aliens who (before this thread was made) actually did it with walls or even grilles

Huh, wires shouldn't be reachable under floor or walls at all, that is why you have to deconstruct walls for them to show up.
