Sharepoint Output Tool - Overwrite not reliably deleting old list items

Hi Experts,

I have a workflow which should update a Sharepoint list with about 800 items / rows. 
In order to do that I use a Sharepoint Output Tool to overwrite the list. According to the description this deletes all the records in the list and then adds the list items.

What I see repeatably is that the overwrite action doesn't delete all rows. It essentially seems to perform the delete column by column really removing columns. When it comes to the main indexed column, lets call it "Identifier" I see that this columns remains and only about 30 of the rows are really deleted.

This seems super unreliable, any clue how to successfully and securely delete Sharepoint list items?

Thanks and best regards,

Nils
