How to miter staggered stacked walls at oblique angles?

In Revit 2020 I have a series of stacked walls (framed 2x6 over conc retaining) that are staggered vertically from each other and are connected at non-right angles (each segment turns 11.25° relative to the last). If I don't vertically stagger the walls, they connect like they typically should, as circled in green on the image. However, if there is a vertical stagger, as circled in red, I get all kinds of broken geometry instead of a simple miter joint.
The part that is infuriating is that I can't use the join wall tool to fix it. The tool tends to make the problem worse; irreversibly changing the bad join on the left to the bad join on the right. And using disallow join, then joining everything to clean it up is going to get very tedious very quickly, especially we have have to modify anything.
Building this foundation and framed wall is going to be pretty simple in real life, but for Revit... it just doesn't like it. Does anyone have suggestions or work-arounds?
