boolean operation failed, remove sweep with lock profile faces option

Hello

I'm stuck on a solid removal by boolean operation.
I want to do a solid removal on a cone following a spiral in two crossed directions.
The first direction works in one operation (thanks to the new "lock profile faces" option!).
For the other direction, I get the error message "boolean operation failed to return a valid part". I then cut my curve into small sections to see the errors.
In the screenshot opposite, there are 2 problematic points, but I can't figure out why.
Any ideas?

Thank you for your help

Cedric
