This is because there are no survey stations with known Z coordinate in these
parts of your scraps - therefore therion is not able to determine "altitude" of
these parts and they are therefore in some average scrap altitude (obviously
wrong in this case). If you will add station points with corresponding names to
your scraps, they should be placed in correct altitude.

Hmmm, this is a known bug, that happens if single scrap goes over multiple
altitude levels. Splitting cave into multiple scraps within single altitude
level usually helps in this case, but it is still a bug that needs to be fixed.

This would help me to find out, where the problem is. Last time I was trying to
fix this on Wookey's 80km mulu scrap and obviously - this was not possible. So
some small cave where it appears is welcome.
