What worked for me is to mark AdditiveLoft002 for recompute and then recompute the document. Somehow the solid must have been in a weird state so that later the boolean cut with the subtractive loft failed to return the expected result.

Oh, so hidden coplanar issues can be propagated and appear in features after the one that has coplanar faces. Didn't know that. And this is something important to know. Thanks for sharing this vocx.
