Relocating components, paste new problem

[Anonymous]

I can't for the life of me what's going on here.  So I have two components, component B being defined onto a face of component A.  If I then copy and paste new these two components, everything is fine. 

However if I first put these two components as subcomponents into a new empty component C, then try copy and paste new this component C, I get a reference failure.  Specifically, it's as if the face reference that component B was defined on is lost by simply restructuring A and B as subcomponents, such that they can no longer be copy-pasted new.  This same problem also arises if sketches are used.

Here's a short screencast to illustrate:

I found a work around is to insert the model into a new model as many times as needed and then break link for each, but was curious if I'm missing something again?

Thanks again,

I am curious about what that was.

I can tell you if this were my design I would not have any Positions and likely no user created workplanes.

I can tell you that this would be my first Component modeled symmetrically about the Origin

and 

Grounded.

Edit: And all of my sketches would be fully defined.
