I think I have an idea why Vd\*Id makes it worse.  
In this [post](https://community.simplefoc.com/t/highly-scientific-foc-simulation/3901) I was showing that a delay between current measurement and angle measurement wrongly increases the measured Id.

As the speed increases, Id is more and more off.

From the other side, Ibus doesn’t seem to be impacted, because it’s only using the angle to define the sign of the current, not to derive Id and Iq.
