I think also Conway’s game of life has a large bestiary of ‘stable patterns’ that you could figure out and then dramatically increase your ability to predict things.
As is demonstrated by the Hashlife algorithm, that exploits the redundancies for a massive speedup. That’s not possible for things like SHA-256 (by design)!
