If the DBT/Windows EOL group is only two-deep, and that property is being set somewhere else that is three or more levels deep, then LM will pick the deepest property to apply (it is assuming deeper in the resource tree=more specific)
That was my fear... makes it hard to differentiate common types of devices across a broad set of groups to make them change a common prop/threshold.
I'd thought it worked backwards from the device up until it found a setting. I know from other pieces that evaluations in some cases are alphabetical rather than by index/ID (Object Creation order). I may test with a group alphabetically sooner than "Clients/" to see if it changes the behavior.

I haven't had to create any dummy resource folders (yet) to force a particular depth, but I figured this type of conflict came up in our environment then I would just come up with some naming standard that is obvious that is what the folder is for, like "LM_Force_Depth" or something like that.
The good news to me is that there's consistent rule for this one so we can fudge it if necessary with a minor workaround like this.
