Windows still locking in place after disabling snapping in Compiz config

Question

I turned off all window snapping in Compiz config, but there is still this annoying behavior where windows lock to both the top and bottom of my monitor(s) once the browser top hits the monitor top.

What settings might be responsible for this locking behavior?

For me, running 16.04, the only solution that worked was:

Compiz > Window Management > Resize Window > General uncheck Maximize Vertically if screen edge hit
