Surface of Bridges from below

First (PVA supported) attempt failed. But that was some simple adhesion problem I need to care about.

 

Used the aborted longtime print to switch to the cutting mesh test.

First time was not too good. Then I recognized that when inserting the cutting mesh (see screenshot), it no longer makes one smooth skin (lower part) but several smaller ones (upper part). How can I teach him not to do so?

    *puts thinking cap on*

     

    My guess would be that inside the cutting mesh there's not enough of the top of the model to merge them.

    But in the "I'm not sure why it works, but it does" department, if you make the cutting mesh as thin as one layer and position it carefully onto the correct layer, it works, but I'm not sure why it does:
