Interesting, and led me to some reading of topics that I didn't even know existed. One thing to note though, this afternoon I reimplemented the handling of 'C' such that they have physical representations in the ZMI (I had them subclass SimpleItem and then performed a _setObject() in a Folder inside the 'A' instance) and this was still happening. I've seen a few comments suggesting that poor handling of Acquisition could be my downfall here so perhaps indeed it wasn't the persistence issue but acquisition instead?
