Yes, I have figured it as such before reading your E-mail.

Indeed, I realised that my prune was not 100% fail-proof in the general case,
because by whether cards are in the Freecell or alternatively in the
foundations can influence the solvability later on in the game, because
different cards can be put on each one.
However, I believe my prune is sound if I say that a card that both of its
potential children have already been placed in the foundations, should not be
moved from the Freecells to an empty column.
