I would say because the box and sphere surrounded both items they were included for collisions. Plus the reflector is a child of the base so that probably has something to do with it. Now why the reflector disappeared is a mystery to me....try something: do that same test but remove the ObjectRemains controller from the base and see if the same result happens. I have a hunch it won't
