Intermittently shorting some of the pins as they jostle about. Any cap will discharge through the silicon quickly to another cap on another pin. Seems not ideal.

I'm just guessing. Same as you. Impossible to know which pins will contact the foil and when. But when they do you're just hooking up a jumper wire. That's why all ESD pads, foams and bags are manufactured to have a moderate, nonzero impedance.
