If a wall is less than six feet (or 2000mm, no not exactly equal to six feet) it will NOT use the Cut line weight, it will only show using the Projection line weight. You can "force" Revit to show it as Cut by setting the Top Constraint to the level above and using a negative Top Offset value to drop it back down to it's intended overall height. A bit obtuse but it works! You can also set the Top Constraint to the same level as the Base Constraint and then use a positive value for your Top Offset value.
Keep in mind that if the height of the low wall is still lower than the cut plane of the view's view range setting it will not show using the cut lineweight, only the projection lineweight. The distinction of this post is for walls that are taller than the cut plane but not quite tall enough (six feet)

It's not a bug from their perspective, it works the way the programmed it, on purpose. The architects that designed Revit originally considered short walls to be different enough from full height or load bearing walls to make them look different automatically.
You can submit a "Idea" to the Revit Ideas forum asking to change the behavior.
For now you can use one of the work-around(s) I mentioned and/or you can use a plan region to shift the cut plane down to intersect with the wall differently where the short wall(s) occur.
