Since the GP stepped back, the WFCO provided the higher voltage to the circuit (14.4 for a standard WFCO) and dominated the charge. The GP saw this reduction in electron flow and switched down to float mode (13.5 V).

You should have the controller's pos and neg to the battery independent of the WFCO charger's pos and neg to the battery. (WFCO neg might include some frame which is ok)
I'm curious, why would that make a difference?
Is it because of voltage loss between WFCO and battery?
I was not very clear. The two need to be in parallel to the battery, which could allow them to share their output wires. what is not allowed is for one's output wires or even one wire to go to the input of the other.

You have a wiring issue.
