Another point, which is similar to the extra component shell in  
your other post ([Dynamic Components - mirrored components](https://forums.sketchup.com/t/dynamic-components-mirrored-components/348487))  
If more than two rotation, add a protective level.  
There are a few weird workarounds with DCs as it a ruby extension and not native. so native updates the drawing giving unexpected outcome. So if notice these abnormalities, the isolation of axis is the fix.
