I don't understand what problem you are trying to address. It seems
you have everything working as you want by using Satisfy All in /A/B
If you are just curious about why it works: Satisfy, as with most
apache directives, applies to the directory it is in and all child
directories. So by applying it to /A you also apply it to /A/B and
/A/B/C. By applying Satisfy All to /A/B you also apply it to /A/B/C.
