Same, kinda.  I quit flipping a coin an just go with it.  Change and regen if it isn't right.

i was telling another guy at work about this a while ago, if you go do not break arcs. i think the pocket spiral toolpath doesnt work properly. on the final spiral it will ram into your piece. i always set mine to break at 180. maybe they fixed this not sure. took me a while to figure out why it wasnt working properly.

I don't break arcs and spiral pocket works for me but after dynamic milling came out I rarely use it.
