We need to wait for Gene to post a file to see what is really happening but
of "line width" is set to 0.3 and a 0.4 nozzel is installed we would expect
to see only 75% of the required plastic being extruded.  Yes "severe under
extrusion"

This would explain the bed adhesion problem too, it needs to pump out 1/3rd
more plastic.

Gene, the plastic sicks to what ever is below it because there is a 0.4mm
of hot and PRESSURIZED plastic under the nozzle.  The hot circle of
pressurized plastic melts whatever is below it in the case if layer #1
pushes the plastic into micro structure of the aluminum.      But with only
75% of the feed rate there is no pressure in the 0.4 circle under the
extruder is not even filled

That is why 3D printing even works, it is because the extruder rate exactly
matches the print speed and is able to maintain a 0.4mm circle of super
heated liquid plastic.
