Why do some boiled eggs easily come out of the shell and others seem to fuse to the shell?

I can tell you the absolute quickest way to peel a boiled egg. Everyone does it wrong.
Put the egg under cold water until you can handle it. Crack a spot with something hard–anything. Put your thumb in the hole and then start pushing the shell sideways–the direction OF the shell. Do not peel up, that is wrong. Pushing the shell sideways, it will break off in large chunks and just keep doing that until it’s done. Takes only 5 seconds once you master the technique.
