Bug found, insulated wire not connecting around edge when used on lamp

I found this while trying to make a compact 7seg for my Project:Red CPU.

Picture is worth 1000 words, so I made this,

I put the two lamps on opposite sides so you could see that indeed power is not transferred to the two stone blocks on either side, when the insulated wire is attached to a lamp block, when it is attached to a solid block that, (I'm guessing) doesn't flag power requirements, it connects to the opposing stone blocks fine.

if you adjust this so that it is using nothing but red alloy wire, and block off the vertical paths from the entrance (I used 2 strips on the ground, on opposite sides of the input so the "lamp" wire loops around like in the picture above), the current won't flow when it touches the lamp, even though the input wire is glowing, and spread out to show a connection

I hope.. that is not too convoluted of a description.

If one of the devs has an idea on where I could look for the bug, but not enough time to figure it out, write up a paragraph of some ideas, where tests are at?? (if any) and I'll dig around for it, anything to help out on this awesome project!
