Hm, a first try: it seems your 'Cable Package" objects do not contain a
'feature_list' object, which explains why the page template is acquired.

 If You want to call the page template on these objects, thus their
attributes are in the acquisition path of the 'feature_list', You may
want to append 'feature_list' by hand to the url, e.g.:

 4a  tal:attributes="href python:package.absolute_url()+'/feature_list'" 

or

 4b  tal:attributes="href python:'%s/feature_list' % package.absolute_url()" 

Would this help, or did I misunderstood the problem?
