There is not a third full, only 2 fulls and one incremental.

Well, that part makes sense, if #0 is deleted/missing, and you want one 
full minimum, then the system must do a full backup. The question is why 
did backup #0 vanish after the incremental and before the 2nd full was done?

Did you read the BPC v4 documentation on how the backup procedure works? 
It discusses what happens with copying and renaming of backups and the 
associated numbers. I don't have time to re-read it right now, but it 
should provide some insight for you.

One thing to remember, it doesn't really matter how many full backups 
are being done, my concern (if I was in your shoes) would be why the 
backup disappeared.
