When installing software, Chocolatey CLI takes a snapshot of the file system and registry so it knows what to remove when uninstalling.

If, while installing a package, there are other installation going on in the background, then Chocolatey CLI will naturally see those as changing during the install, and naturally assume that those changes are part of the software installation. Upon uninstall, using the Chocolatey Automatic Uninstaller, it will likely remove the other software that was captured during the Chocolatey CLI package installation.

The two options are:

Based on experience I'm not going to try to reproduce this as I won't be able to. It's based on your environment at the time of the uninstallation.
