*should* you boil with lid off? Yeah. That being said I recently brewed a hefe and boiled the whole 60 min covered (brewing and drinking can have side effects after all). It came out great without any off flavors but who knows, maybe I just got lucky.
I also induction boil, but insulating the pot made a huge difference. Have you tried that?Well crap, I've been boiling with the lid partially on for a good dozen batches since I bought my electric induction plate and didn't think nothing of it.

edit to add:
Induction is great because there no additional heat outside the pot to hurt the insulation. Anything that will handle 212 degrees will work fine.
That'll work fine. I use a neoprene Keg Koozy. How big's your pot?Maybe some of that aluminum faced bubble wrap?
Try that again with Pilsner malt and see if you get the same results.
