I noticed the same in the testing grounds when shooting the cataphract on forest colony. Once you remove a side torso from the back and keep shooting it all damage transfers to ct.

I think it's supposed to work that way.
All transfered damage is applied to the front armor first (be it from legs/arms to side torso or side to center).
At least a dev explained it like that a while ago. No idea why they did it like this, makes no sense but it is what it is.
