Vase mode scar

Hello,

I need to print a bowl shape in vase mode, but I am getting a scar/seam in the print.

The issue seems to be that the spiral is not moving toward the next point in all directions, so there is a big jump when it comes full circle.
I have been able to write a little script in Grasshopper where each point is moved slightly in the XYZ direction of the next point above, and thus getting no scar.

Can we not fix this bug in a similar manner?

Looking forward to hear!
Søren

Could you attach a factory file here so we can take a look at it?

This is not just a vase mode issue, it commonly happens on parts with holes near walls as well.
