A thought about Spawing jars that pin early.

When the colonizing stage is over and fruiting is initiated, the mushroom won't grow much new mycelium, so it could be said, that once the mycelium started to develop pins, fruiting is the only reasonable option you have. It won't colonize "any" further after pinning.
This idea is accepted by most around here, including RR.
How would this apply if someone was spawning BRF cakes to hpoo? If the BRF cake pinned early the mycelium had technically already stopped the colonization cycle and entered its fruiting cycle, then by that logic wouldn't the mycelium be slacking when it is crumbled and used mixed with the poo?
I mean if the base network already thinks it should be fruiting then hows it supposed to go back into its colonization cycle and become one with the poop at full throttle?
OR are we to assume that even if the mycelium has entered its fruiting cycle, if only one or two pin's have shown then it's still near max potential and by crumbling it we sort of force the mycelium back into colonization because obviously a crumbled substrate can not produce fruit and has no other choice then to colonize with the hpoo...
I'm kind of think-typing out loud to get some sort of confirmation from you guys that I'm understanding this properly.

If mycelium is disrupted, it will renew itself continuing formation of fruitbodies unless damaged too much where it will abort. It never really stops colonizing until it's dead, then again mycelium never really "dies" as some claim.
Jellyfish can live forever, why can't mushrooms.
