Windows service does not stop or uninstall when uninstalling (Wix)

I saw several related stackoverflow questions that relate to this, but none of them seem to respond to the specific behavior that I am observing.

I have a Windows service defined as follows in the Wix 3.0.wxs file.

<Component Id='Service' Guid='3c658a54-b236-11e0-bbf6-039615e482ae' >

    <File Id='ServiceEXE' Name='m_agent_service.exe'
          Vital='yes' Source='..\m_agent_service.exe'
          KeyPath='yes' />

    <ServiceInstall Id='MerakiServiceInstall'
        Vital='yes'
        Name='MerakiPCCAgent' DisplayName='Meraki Client Insight Agent $(env.VERSION)' Description="Meraki Client Insight Monitoring and Management Service"
        Type='ownProcess' Interactive='no' Start='auto' ErrorControl='normal'>
    </ServiceInstall>

    <ServiceControl Id='MerakiServiceControl'
        Name='MerakiPCCAgent'
        Start='install' Stop='both' Remove='uninstall'
        Wait='yes' />
</Component>

When I install .MSI, the service installs and starts. Fine.

( msiexec/x, "/ " ), . , , . ( "sc stop", , do, , .)

msiexec/x:
