Defeat during invasive war = expulsion on the next day?

I pushed a faction Bear into a new system, this immediately triggered a war over a planetary asset with faction Owl. I did not want to grab that asset because that asset is plagued with many aggressive missions aimed at the installation. So I fought against invaders to push the victor into a war with other faction so defeated faction could jump over them while there will be busy. Day after defeat their influence was at 3.8% and I already done some courier and passenger mission for them. I'm checked a today and they are gone from the sector! Why?
 
it's what defines an invasion conflict - the loosing side leaves the system. no matter what.
only during invasion a system can hold 8 factions.
good news is - depending on how many alternatives there are for "your" faction, next extended invasion might trigger the same conflict.
