Flies are basically organic drones with simple programming. They don’t use thought processes, they use instincts/programming, and they have no program for “invisible walls”. To them, it’s an empty space that they suddenly and inexplicably smack into. They can’t puzzle through it, that requires thought. So they just keep following their program, and like a roomba stuck under the couch, if the programming dosn’t work they will keep going until the program tells them to do something else or until the battery runs out.
