I can agree that while in some cases passive aircraft pull into the gate properly but in most cases they are still stopping whenever the aircraft bounds are touching the virtual gates center:

In cases in which they pull properly into the gate it’s looking like they are attached to a “rubber band” that forces them into position instead of a smooth movement.
