Snowballs visual bug

Projectiles like the snowball that are launched at high velocities (>40) follow a warped flight path. Generally, they will appear to either curve to the left or to the right.

I dont not believe this is an intentional accuracy offset randomization because if it is intentional than why do the offset snowballs not affect targets when they visually hit them? They do however directly hit the target in the middle of the screen even with this visual bug
