Spell penetration value changing with no clear reason?

For no clear reason, my spell penetration value seems to be jumping from 5978 to 8952 and back. Am I missing something here? Is this a visual bug?

You probably don't have the "prevent attacking innocents" option turned on in settings, so as NPCs walk by, it will increase your penetration by 2,974.
5,978 + 2,974 = 8,9520 -
DTStormfox✭✭✭✭✭Yes, it may have something to do with the Master Assassin passive. However, observe two things.
First, I don't 'aim' at any NPCs (or players) in the video and second, I have the "prevent attacking innocents" turned on.

SkadiMZ✭✭✭Well, considering the values of penetration, it definitely has something to do with the master assassin passive, it's just a question of how the game evaluates when or if the penetration should be increased.
The "prevent attacking innocents" toggle may only prevent skills from firing, but seeing as how innocents can be attacked in certain situations, it probably makes more sense to have skills not fire instead of coding in situational context into every passive and skill.
Why not try to see if you can replicate this when you're in a player house without any target dummies, house guests or pets so that you can be sure the penetration is changing for no reason and isn't being influenced by NPCs or nearby players?0
