I reckon it was due to the primary temperature not being uniform. You might have had a hot or cold spot under the fans maybe. I had similar issues by applying gentle heat to a newt primary. Unless it's evenly spreadout you get those temperature differentials that causes stress in the glass and it translates to wonky star shapes.
