[BaseCamp] symbol priorities for stacked waypoints

In multiple locations on my map, I have multiple stacked waypoints. So, in
one lat/lon location I have 3 waypoints, each with different symbols and/or
colors, but the same lat/lon. In another location I have 2 waypoints, each
with different symbols and/or colors. In another, three. And so on.
I am routing to these multi-waypoint spots but only selecting one of the
three symbols as the "official" waypoint for that particular route. The
desired symbol shows up properly in the route properties box but not
necessarily on the map when I ask to Show On Map.
Thus I can't tell from looking at the map (unless I am zoomed in as close
as possible which means I can't see my entire route) if a particular
location is included on the route since the symbol that I want for that
route is not necessarily the one showing up on the map - even though it is
showing up in the route properties box.
When I view my map, I see only one symbol/color per location of stacked
waypoints. BC seems to have a default for prioritizing of symbols on the
map for stacked waypoints, but I can't figure it out. Any one know?
Plus, the stacked order of the symbols on the map is not the same as the
order in which they are listed in the data column to the left.
Any ideas what BC's priorities are for stacked symbols and colors? In
some situations where I have the exact same symbols and color in multiple
locations, BC shows a different one as default on the map. That is, I have
blue flag and blue diamond stacked in various locations. On the map, BC
shows some locations as blue diamond and in others it show blue flag.
There seems to be no consistency.
