ConstraintLayout doesn't respect max height

Question

I'm trying to create a layout composition using ConstraintLayout. In order to simplify my case, my layout should have three parts:

1. The first layout (in red), that should grow according to the remaining space and has a max height.
2. The second layout (in green), which has a fixed size of 150dp and should always be below the first layout.
3. The first layout (in pink), also has a fixed size of 150dp and should be aligned to the bottom the view.

The part I'm struggling with is setting a max height for the first layout (red). It seems like the ConstraintLayout ignores my "max height statements":

app:layout_constraintHeight_max="300dp"

Here's my current result (the red part ignores the height limit..):

Here's the full XML:
