The child object cannot be added until the parent object is added first.
What's happening here is that the ACS is not checking presets a second
time. Preset verification is an expensive process so agressive caching
is employed to minimize how often the ACS need to verify presets. In
this particular case this caching mechanism is preventing presets from
being checked a second time.

See the attached patch for a fix. However, this fix comes with a couple
of down sides: a) it adds a considerable performance hit; and b) it can
potentially cause infinite loop in rare cases.

Will push this fix upstream if I can find a way to prevent infinite
loops or at least let it fail gracefully.

Not sure about this one. Can you share they keys of the two objects you
tried to add?
