SOLUTION:

I have been discussing this with LDC and agree the better solution is to TRUNCATE the partition.

How To Avoid ORA-14758 in Interval Partitioned Table (Doc ID 1526571.1)
(iv) Temporarily disable the interval partition.

Here is one example of Temporarily disable the interval partition.
This has side effects as shown which has worked until one day it stopped working.
Test cases are simple and real world may not be as such.
