Add speed control for the first layer on top of the infill and on top of the supports. If the first layer on top of the infill is printed to fast you need to increase to much the top layer quantity to achieve a good surface.

Mark,

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll be sharing your idea with our development team.

In case you haven't tried it already, you can currently tweak your bridging settings (particularly unsupported area threshold) to have bridging overrides applied to large enough areas printed atop supports.

Default:

5mm Area threshold, Bridging Applied to Perimeters, and 150% bridging movement speed:
