If you are in one of the smaller cogs in back, it might be a bit more likely to overshift off the front ring because the chains is already outboard. Whereas if you are on a larger cog in back the chain is inboard and slightly more resistant to being overshifted. When adjusting the front, I usually check that it works both directions in combination with different gears in back.
