The base version or CanSendOutInterests returns false when the node is trying to send out on the face the node has received interest from (in this case you definitely want to try another, if available), or (if retransmission detection is enabled) the node already send out interest to this phase during the current "retransmission cycle".

TrySendOutInterest method makes an attempt to send out interest over the face and in your code I see that attempt to try next face would be aborted if m_drop_cause is not equal to 1 (e.g., if it is 1, only one face should be tried in most of the cases).
