If an Active Directory(AD) group has another AD group as both it's parent and as a child member you have a circular nested reference.
Why would that matter?
There is no technical reason preventing the use of circular references between AD groups, Active Directory can still calculate and grant access. The main reason that circular references are considered harmful is that they tend to make management more difficult
