Hello @daoust, sorry but you have hit a big problem with Cura that it doesn't make a good job of thin walls. The problem boils down to the fact that all walls have to be printed as a pair of lines and not just a single line. Cura tries to make amends by providing "wall overlap compensation" which makes a second wall that runs close to a first wall thinner so as to reduce the overall width but, unfortunately, the overlap compensation has many bugs and is not guaranteed to make a good job. It remains a problem area.
For those who are looking for solution on this problem. Use minimal wall flow option set to 100% with compensate wall overlaps option.
This way you will receive single line printing, the wall you are going to print must be slightly wider than nozzle. e.g 0.5mm nozzle -> 0.51mm wall
