Boolean Subtraction | Unwanted primitives being removed

Hey All,

I'm having a little bit of trouble getting a basic boolean subtraction operation to work. I've set up a simple grid of blocks and am subtracting a primitive cube from it.

The issue is that when I add an offset/spacing to the blocks, the boolean operation will seemingly start to remove random primitives that are outside of the bounds of the cutting primitive.

Any help figuring out what's going on here, or how to resolve it would be appreciated.
