[Bug] Carousel view inside carousel view conflict on position

Description

Hello,

I am contacting you because I have a bug in my program that I was able to reproduce. I have a carouselview nested inside another. Scrolling inside wasn't working so I disabled the parent one and did it manually. The problem does not arise there.

When scrolling down to the parent carousel, everything is fine. When scrolling at the level of the child carousel, everything is fine.

The problem arises when trying to add a new item in the parent's collection.

Here is my code. Very easy to reproduce 👍

TestPage.xaml:

namespace MathomicsEnseignant.Test.ViewModels
{
    public class InsidePageViewModel: BaseViewModel
    {

        public InsidePageViewModel()
        {
            for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) this.Items2.Add("Inside " + this.Items2.Count + "");
        }

    }
}

Steps to Reproduce

1- Scroll parent items with "left" and "right" buttons 2- Scroll through the child carousel. 3- Click on AddItem (middle button)

Expected Behavior

The last Item must be added at the end of the carousel view. We keep the same view and the carouselview inside does not change.

Actual Behavior

We stay on the same page, but the carouselview seems to have moved to another parent item.

Basic Information

I run the application on an android emulator pixel_5 api_30 and i use Visual studio with Xamarin Forms
