Well now if I change my InstallExecuteSequence code to look like this:
<InstallExecuteSequence>
      <Custom
              Action="DotNetInstall"
              After="InstallFinalize">
      Installed
      </Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>

Typical works right, as expected, because it will only try and install
features that were actually Installed, and if I set feature level to 4,
those features won't be installed.  However, on the Remove, I get the 2753
error (trying to remove something that wasn't installed maybe?).

Complete doesn't work as expected, it does what typical does, except without
the 2753 error for removing.
