Why is it adding support to the outside of a dome?

I'm trying to build a thin wall dome.
Support structure is manually placed in the middle.
Simplify 3D is adding floating support on the outside of the dome.
The only way for me to stop it is to increase the support horizontal offset up to 3mm which means it wont touch the inside of the part.

It is driving me nuts.

So it seems to be 'Extra Inflation Distance' causing this. It looks like its offsetting the support through the part to the outside. When reduced it fixes it.
