This was the first time I had one explode. We'd made Xs and, if anything, the shells were slightly softer than usual, so I don't doubt that the exes were deep enough. Maybe they were just too close together? The reason I'd asked about oiling is we usually use an enamel/Descoware-type pan, but this time we wanted more (grin), so we made an extra little casserole dish full, and I'd wondered if not oiling a non-coated dish was what made the chestnut explode.
