Sweep doesn't use all of guide rail

Why does my sweep not use the entirety of the guide rail? I have bumped into this a few times. I can make wings in Rhino using 2 rails and one airfoil resulting in a nice surface for minimum input, but Inventor flummoxes me here.
Anyone with knowledge of ASM chip in here?

Hello @SargeNZ,

This is reasonable since it will result to Self-intersection error.

Please create half and half to complete the design and the surface is continuous as high quality as well.

Hope it helps!
