So A->D all have the same RelatedBundle GUID?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] 3.9.702 Bundle update behavior

After adding more logging statements that information is the same as above but 
confirms that the DetectUpdateBegin and worker_DoWork detect the latest version 
(on the web site if available).

But apparently prior to that event, when there are intermediate versions cached 
locally (meaning a version that is higher than the exe that was launched, but 
not the latest (either installed or available for download), the 
DetectRelatedBundle is detecting the intermediate versions of the same bundle 
if they were ever run on this machine.

The log entry notes the version and says Operation:Downgrade.

The related code is at Line 157 of wix39_702\src\burn\engine\detect.cpp

I don't quite understand why if the running exe is A, and the detected "related 
bundle" (which is really a MajorUpgrade of the same bundle) is B, (and the 
available update from Update/@Location is C), why is marking B as a 'downgrade' 
to A, and then launching Bundle B as an 'update' rather than launching Bundle C?

Still digging.

Also for clarification I do not have any 'related' bundles (as I understood 
related bundle), but I do define the following, so that in the future after 
this bundle is released I will be able to create another Bundle to deploy 
patches or updates.  Generally I hope to only deploy MajorUpgrade of this 
bundle, but reality will probably force me to create a patch and deploy it as a 
separate but related bundle.  I read somewhere that I should plan for that 
event in this manner.
In Bundle (of product.exe)
    <RelatedBundle Action='Detect' Id='$(var.product_RelatedBundleCode)' />
