What does "Any thoughts on why the conditions are not evaluated correctly in
Maintenance mode?" mean? Are you saying that this scenario is not a
fresh install to a clean system?
It's more common to use features as containers if you allow these to
be added or removed at install and during maintenance mode because
feature dialogs are a common part of maintenance mode. Transitive
components can be a bear trap because they'll be evaluated at times
like patch and repair and if you lose the property values you'll lose
the files.
