Issue description

As the title says, in a multilevel inheritance, changes to nodes in the editor in a scene will only affect up to the next inherited scene, not to all subsequent ones, as expected.

Steps to reproduce

Create a base scene and an A scene that inherits Base, and a B scene that inherits A, and a C scene that inherits B, and so on.

Any change you make to the nodes from one of these scenes will only take effect up to the next scene. Changes in B only affect C and changes in C only affect D, etc.

@AttackButton Can you reproduce this in 3.4?

@AttackButton Can you reproduce this in 3.4?

Yeah, this happens in 3.4 stable too.

As a side note, apparently some properties like the raycast2D's collision mask has no effect on the next inherited scene. Others like enabled, cast to and exclude parent does.

I managed to reproduce the bug with the collision mask as well. Could it not be the case, as discussed in #56584, that the grandchild scene was closed during the test?
