Kejardon (under a pseudonym, see page 2 of the thread) posts an SMV showing completing the game with 13% by X-Ray Climbing in Golden Four, then X-Ray Climbing in Mother Brain's Room to bypass the Mother Brain fight.
This run also came with this comment about another discovery in the game:
Finally, the trigger that makes Zebes explode is simply entering the room behind Mother Brain - all Mother Brain does is set the timer that kills you. It's a random tidbit of trivia I've only now had the chance to put to use.
