@Mike, you can see the stacked response behavior in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/1743249/+attachment/5046952/+files/spearow-fall-back-to-default-amd64.pcap

You can tell packet 90573 is a response to the requests for
grub.cfg-<mac> because its destination port (25305) is the src port
the request for grub.cfg-<mac> was coming from (packets 2 through 38).
