Yep! All it takes is one person braking, and then the person behind braking, then the person behind them, and eith each braking the overall speed slows down more and more. It creates a wave of traffic. The wave passes through. The starting point I think moves back further and further.
I think the issue is more or less slow drivers. One asshole is going 60 in a 70 in the left lane which caused people to pass them which in turn cause the cascade from the maneuvering around the slow person.
Slow drivers are far more dangerous than people don’t 10 15 over the speed limit.

I think about it a lot while I sit in traffic.

You are incorrect. You are the cause of the traffic jam lol, literally.
If people pass quickly, then get out of the left lane, nobody needs to brake and start a compression wave
