I'm probably going to explain it poorly, but essentially when the node is suspended but hasn't "exploded", there's likely still some "invisible tethers" anchoring it to the ground. Since you can only dig down an x-amount of "blocks" (I think it's 10?), this anchor is probably below that threshold. You basically just have to do a process of elimination at that point, whittling away at the bottom of the node until you sever all those tethers.
I think it can also depend on the elevation that the node. I've had some coastal nodes that would never "explode" because most of those aforementioned anchors were much deeper than I could dig/level out.
