Description
### Issue Description
Hello! We've been having intermittent failures when building one of our solutions. It includes a library being built at the top-level as well as because it is a dependency of another project in the solution. We are running into the file access issue described [here](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/msbuild/fix-intermittent-build-failures?view=vs-2022), suggesting a race condition during the build.
I investigated the binlogs (would like to avoid posting them), and indeed there is a difference in `Properties/Global` for both of them. The build triggered because it's included as a dependency is missing `TargetFramework`. So that presumably is causing the project to be built twice.
My confusion is that the log includes a line that says
```
Removing Properties for project
```
and the project in question. It is removing one property: `TargetFramework`.
So, in summation, based on my research, the project is being built twice, leading to a race condition, because it is missing `TargetFramework`, and it is missing `TargetFramework` because something (MSBuild? dotnet?) is deciding to remove the property.
My question is, is my assessment correct? And if so, how do I get it to stop removing that property?
Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere or already filed, I couldn't find it.
### Steps to Reproduce
The command I'm running is
```
dotnet build $SOLUTION_FILE --configuration Release --self-contained True --verbosity Normal /property:WarningLevel=0 --noLogo -p:$RUNTIME_PROP_NAME=win-x64 --framework net6.0
```
### Expected Behavior
Build consistently succeeds.
### Actual Behavior
Build intermittently fails with a file access error.
### Analysis
_No response_
### Versions & Configurations
Windows 11
dotnet 6.0.406
dotnet msbuild --version outputs
```
MSBuild version 17.3.2+561848881 for .NET
17.3.2.46303
```
