Why does an operator not follow the same path with the Astar navigator ?

I attach a sample model (2017-06-07-astar.fsm) to illustrate my question.

In the attached model, an operator transports a box from a source to a sink.

For the 2 first boxes, he's using this path:

For the 3rd box, he's using another path:

If you continue the simulation, you will notice that the operator will "change his mind" from times to times.

However if you deactivate Cache Paths in the A* navigator properties, the operator will always calculate and use the same path.

So why does the operator not follow always the same path with cache paths activated ?
