Research direction
Start by reproducing secondary AP operation in STA mode on the reported MediaTek MT7628AN setup with OpenWrt 19.07.4 and inspect the hostapd log lines about failed beacon parameters and probe requests. Compare behavior with and without WDS support; done means the secondary AP runs correctly in STA mode or the remaining limitation is documented.
