No problem from what I see ... a processor looks at a given set of 
conditional page master references in document order of the stylesheet and 
the first one to test true (not "the most specific one") is the one that is 
to be used.

In your example, you ordered less-specific choices first so they tested 
true before the processor had a chance to test the more-specific 
choices.  The rule of thumb is to order more-specific choices earlier in 
the testing list so that they are regarded before those tests that test 
true more easily.

I hope this helps.
