Anecdotally, there was a time I used to stack fire barrels in nearby POI's so that screamers would be attracted to them as opposed to me.
I haven't tested this since A17 tho.
On the casual observation front, I have never seen any evidence to support that when you are outside of the draw distance of any particular chunk, that anything particular happens there. I have left areas and returned and found what I guess would be mobs frozen in time, as if they had never moved very far from their positions when I left them behind. I have found yellow and blue bags as the morning rose without ever having actually killed any zeds on the road, which supports a hypothesis of mine that they were wandering ferals, which I think die upon the morning chimes.

Interesting, I was thinking of stacking a bunch of torches on a pine tree. So at night I would have some to shoot at from a perch away
One theory is that there is just too many in game zombies and the system kills them. The bags do drop if RnGeezus be with you.
But yeah, my thing was to light up a field with torches, so I could go fire up my furnace a few blocks away.
