Not all of them! Designer Han tried to implement free-falling bucket.

Do you have a link to that?
I'm very curious

WHY WAS THIS NOT THE FRICKING B-MODEL?

Seriously, with all the extra development time this set had, TLG couldn't do what took one of our members three months to do?

Offcourse did didn't, it would have cost extra money instead of extra earnings.
They prefer to indulge in their wisdom and billions, looks they forgot how close they were to bankruptcy once.

pride comes before a fall

Sure, it can be found on his website www.designer-han.com/lego

There's a video there as well, and he sells instructions here

It used to be listed on Rebrickable as MOC-2542 but now it's disabled for some reason.

It was discussed on Eurobricks too.

Look at the video at about 3:10.

Sure, it's probably not as spectacular as the real thing but it looks pretty much free falling to me, so the spirit of the original machine is captured :)

And the Eurobricks review I linked discuses how it is done.

Yeah, according to that review the winches are disconnected using driving rings, so they would be free-falling.
