If it cannot get back to the best focus point, I think that would mean that the backlash setting needs tweaking.
Yeah, once I get the backlash dialed in (of which I have a lot), it's usually fine as long as it doesn't confuse nebula with stars, but there was no nebulae in this image. It didn't give me a warning, the v-curves were very nice, but the focus was just quite off...

Same as you, it usually does a better job than I can do myself. Quite strange.
