Voronoi Fracture with Volume Builder vs. Lathe

I’m just starting out with C4D and created a spline in Adobe Illustrator (half of a chess pawn’s profile).  CV-ArtSmart into C4D, then Lathe, and finally a Voronoi Fracture.  I’ve noticed though that artifacts will often appear.  I’ve tried various settings to include having the Lathe produce a single object and/or having Voronoi fill any holes.  Prior to the addition of the Voronoi, the mesh looks perfectly OK.

The artifacts will show up even if I make the Lathe editable (and thus just end up with a mesh).  I have also optimized said mesh.

As a workaround, I’ve found that I can use a Volume Builder and Volume Mesher on the Lathe.  Set the Adaptive value on the mesher as needed, then put into a Voronoi Fracture.  I no longer see any artifacts.

Is this a known issue with Lathe and Voronoi? Are there any other workarounds that may be easier to employ?  Thank you.

Edit: I tried to attach a zip of the C4D project (~200K), but FireFox refused to attach it.
