Why does a bearing element not work even when the centroid of the Mobile side of the bearing connection appears to match the centroid of the Reference side of the bearing connection?

As mentioned in the help document, for a body to body bearing element the Reference and Mobile locations should be in the same rotation plane. For example – When a shaft is rotating about z axis, the reference and mobile locations should be exactly in the XY plane. Double digit precision is needed for the z coordinate to be exactly same for the reference and mobile side otherwise the bearing will have a question mark in the tree outline. Its is recommended to create two Remote Points first and then use these Remote Points as the Scoping method for both Reference and Mobile side. This way one has control to modify the z coordinate and make sure it is same exact number between the reference and mobile sides.
