I was referring to how the baby magma cubes initially spawn with zero downwards velocity—they still eventually fall. If it were real life though, you'd expect that if the corpse of the big magma cube disappeared going 10m/s downwards that the baby magma cubes would spawn with that same 10m/s downwards velocity.
Judging by your video, it actually looks like like none of the velocity is inherited/transferred—from a physics perspective I'd expect the baby magma cubes to spawn and continue roughly the same trajectory as the big magma cube the moment it disappears.

Wow, I'm surprised this got a comment!
