These algorithms are still in development, and not ready for production use.

No: it's just that without an explicit extrusion direction, Extrude uses the (smoothed) normal field computed on the surface triangles to compute the extrusion direction. Here you then extrude "not quite" in the symmetry plane. For such a simple geometry, I would recommend explicitly extruding a 2D mesh (and thus creating the boundary layer directly) using e.g. a rotation.
