Additionally, if the player is crouched down and you aim straight forward while standing in front of them, your attack will still land despite it missing visually.

Hello Gavin_Golden_Gloves.
This is because the game choses the closest hitbox (some of them can overlap each other), so when you are punching above the head, it picks up head zone, because it is closest one. There might be changes to this in the future.
