My guess is that the sim is built to similar to real life. In real life tackles get more pancakes because of leverage. A defensive tackle coming straight on is harder to pancake. An edge rusher trying to get by with speed, or a blitzing linebacker on the edge, is way easier to pancake because they're moving quickly and not coming right at you.
